People are being urged to plan ahead as Christmas gets closer
As we get closer to Christmas, it has been announced that the public - including locals in Glasgow - should expect some disruption. It comes as rail staff and postal workers are among those expected to walk out with industrial action set to continue into 2023.
Royal Mail strikes and final posting deadlines dates Members of the Communication Workers Union – who represent Royal Mail workers – are set to strike across more days - including Christmas Eve. Train strikes and how Glasgow services will be affected Glasgow rail passengers are expected to face further disruption when it comes to travel after RMT Network Rail members voted to continue striking over a dispute about pay, jobs and working conditions.
ScotRail confirmed in a statement the strikes "will cause disruption to ScotRail services, as Network Rail Scotland signallers and maintenance staff, who are in safety-critical roles, will be on strike." It comes after bosses 'failed to make an acceptable offer' to resolve the pay dispute. As previously reported by Glasgow Live, around 50 craft workers based at the Co-op’s factory in Govan are fighting for a fair pay award.
