Heads up, Cardiff commuters! 🚍 Cardiff Bus might see some strike action this September as the ongoing pay dispute heats up. Unite the union members are in the midst of voting, and if the latest pay offer isn’t accepted, we could face service disruptions for over three weeks starting Monday, 1st September.
The situation remains uncertain until the union announces the ballot results by Friday, 29th August. Fingers crossed for a positive outcome, but just in case, Cardiff Bus is getting contingency plans ready. So, if you rely on these buses, keep an eye on their website, app, and social channels for the latest updates.
Managing Director Craig Hampton-Stone remains hopeful, stating, “We hope it doesn’t come to this, but we’re committed to responsible planning for our customers and staff.” Discussions are ongoing, with a new pay deal aiming to resolve the conflict. Previous strike plans were halted earlier this month thanks to a revised offer that included better working conditions, like longer breaks and improved sickness terms.
