Firstly, staff numbers are not being reduced

Today TfL published this:
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/medi...tre/16542.aspx

which includes

"The proposed changes would mean a reduction in the total number of posts
across LU"

and

"the majority of the roughly 800 posts that are identified for reduction
are ticket office staff; this also includes a saving of around 150 posts
from reductions in management and administrative staff."
