:00:16. > :00:18.into the Tube strike which promises to cause a massive headache
:00:19. > :00:22.for commuters during tomorrow's rush hours.
:00:23. > :00:28.The walk-out is over jobs and ticket office closures.
:00:29. > :00:32.At six o'clock this evening, this started happening.
:00:33. > :00:34.The doors to almost all central London Tube stations
:00:35. > :00:38.were closed, marking the start of a 24-hour strike.
:00:39. > :00:41.Both commuters and the Mayor of London had been hoping it
:00:42. > :00:43.wouldn't come to this, but this morning, unions confirmed
:00:44. > :00:45.they'd rejected a last-minute offer from Transport for London
:00:46. > :00:51.While many don't know how or if they'll be able
:00:52. > :00:53.to get to work tomorrow, what is certain is more
:00:54. > :00:58.Businesses, like this one in Soho, are also worried.
:00:59. > :01:01.Sundays are normally a fairly quiet day for us anyway.
:01:02. > :01:04.However, obviously we rely on a lot of walk-ins that I don't believe
:01:05. > :01:08.Lots of people come in to us after 7.30pm in the evening.
:01:09. > :01:11.Considering the strike is starting this evening,
:01:12. > :01:14.I don't think we're going to see any of that any more.
:01:15. > :01:16.In north London tonight, thousands of football fans
:01:17. > :01:20.at Tottenham Stadium know that getting home will be tough.
:01:21. > :01:22.I have to stay at my parents' house and they're going
:01:23. > :01:31.Uber, black cab, overground, have a walk, you never know.
:01:32. > :01:34.We live in south-west London, so we're just going to go as far
:01:35. > :01:37.south as we can on a bus, we might walk a bit.
:01:38. > :01:39.Kind of hoping eventually we get somewhere we can get another bus
:01:40. > :01:43.During the strike, TFL will put on 200 extra
:01:44. > :01:48.buses in central London, but do expect long queues.
:01:49. > :01:53.Although it'll be busy, hundreds of extra bikes will be
:01:54. > :01:55.available at special pop-up hubs at Waterloo, King's Cross
:01:56. > :01:58.and here at Soho Square near Tottenham Court Road.
:01:59. > :02:02.There will also be extra staff around to help people drop off bikes
:02:03. > :02:07.There are other ways to get into the capital tomorrow, but none
:02:08. > :02:13.And we certainly won't be seeing many of these.
:02:14. > :02:16.Emilia joins me now from King's Cross.
:02:17. > :02:19.Can you give us a bit more detail about the disruption
:02:20. > :02:30.Although the strike officially started this evening when things
:02:31. > :02:35.have not been too bad so far. A lot of the stations are still open. The
:02:36. > :02:39.real trouble will happen tomorrow. At King's Cross, where we are now,
:02:40. > :02:43.we are expecting it to be chaotic in the morning because lots people come
:02:44. > :02:47.into this station and take the tube to work or wherever they are going.
:02:48. > :02:52.They will not be able to do that tomorrow. Big stations like
:02:53. > :02:59.Waterloo, Euston and Marylebone will also be closed as well. Tomorrow,
:03:00. > :03:02.Monday, all Tube station since then one will be shut. The Victoria line,
:03:03. > :03:06.Waterloo City lines will not be running at all and there will be
:03:07. > :03:13.severely reduced services on other lines, especially those in outer
:03:14. > :03:16.London. The mayor was hoping that the strike would be called off. It
:03:17. > :03:24.does not look like that is happening. No. The mayor has been
:03:25. > :03:29.very keen on stopping this strike from going ahead. He has instructed
:03:30. > :03:33.transport the London to continue negotiations. He said his team would
