Default LU Driver Duties

For a typical LU Driver's shift what would be the approx amount of duty time
for the following components of the days work?


I can only speak for the Piccadilly line but most of these are the
agreed parameters for the Underground...

Time between signing on and taking over train.


19 minutes (includes 7 mins walking time to Arnos Grove platform)

Time driving before break.


Maximum of 4 hours 15 mins.

Time allotted for break. (Is this time paid or unpaid?)


30 minutes unpaid break.

Time driving after break.


Maximum of 4 hours 15 minutes

Time between leaving train and signing off.


Generally nil (typically duties book off on the platform, although some
do have up to 7 minutes at the end).

Obviously the shift make-up will vary depending on loads of factors but just
want an idea of what would be typical.


Minimum duty length is 4 hours, maximum is 8 hours - plus your meal
break so maximum rostered time can be 8 1/2 hours.
