Passengers travelling to Bristol Airport by rail have been issued a warning ahead of planned industrial action. It is set to be the biggest rail strike in more than 30 years.
Rail Union RMT is planning to strike this week between June 21 and 25 meaning there will be a significantly reduced timetable in the Bristol area and across the country. The Rail, Maritime and Transport workers’ union (RMT) confirmed on Saturday (June 18) that talks have failed to reach an amicable conclusion in a dispute over pay, jobs and conditions, meaning that strike action will go ahead.
On Twitter, Bristol Airport advised: "We are advising customers to leave additional time for their journeys to and from Bristol Airport from 21 - 25 June due to the planned National Rail Strikes. It's advised to check before you travel."
