Bus services face disruption on 1 May

Bus services face disruption ahead of the bank holiday weekend as the National Bus and Rail Union will hold a day of action on Friday 1 May.

The union's day of action is in protest at plans to open 10% of bus routes to private sector tendering.

It said 92% of drivers in Dublin Bus and 91% in Bus Éireann voted to back industrial action, up to and including strike action.

Last week, SIPTU members in the two companies also voted overwhelmingly to back strike action over the same issue.

SIPTU shop stewards are due to meet today to decide on how to proceed with any action.

Unions fear that the opening of 10% of bus routes to private operators will drive down pay and conditions.

The National Transport Authority said it is disappointed the trade unions have chosen to take this action following their withdrawal from on-going talks at the Labour Relations Commission.  

In a statement, the NTA said public transport customers will be greatly inconvenienced as a result.
