A London Assembly committee has warned of mental and physical impacts of Tube noise.
New data from City Hall shows nearly £30m has been spent over the past five years on reducing noise on the London Underground.
The figure covers all "rail grinding" on the Tube network - managing defects and to prolong rail life, as well as specifically for the purpose of noise reduction. Rail grinding removes the bumps and dents from tracks that contribute to increases in screeching noises as the train crosses them. It also keeps the rails lasting longer.A total of £9.2m was spent on rail grinding in 2019-2020 compared to £6.3m in 2023-2024.
