The walkouts are planned for June 21, 23 and 25
After the scale of disruption to services by planned industrial action became clear, talks are to be held in a bid to avert strikes by railway workers .
NR is also drawing up contingency plans, with the strikes expected to cause disruption to services for six days, from the first walkout on Tuesday June 21 to the day after the third strike. The strikes threaten widespread travel disruption during a number of major events, including concerts, Test match cricket and the Glastonbury festival.
Network Rail chief executive Andrew Haines said the organisation is “doing everything we can” to avoid the strike action. “Because anyone working in this industry, any industry for that matter, you want it to be sustainable for the long term. It’s not possible to keep giving it the same level of support it got during the pandemic.”
