Bristol Waste strikes suspended for ballot over new pay offer

Bristol Waste bin strikes, which would have caused weeks of disruption have been suspended. It's to allow for a ballot on the improved offer put on the table by the company.

More than 300 refuse workers, who are members of the union Unite, were due to take part in the strike action, which would have taken place this week.

This initial strike period would have coincided with the Harbour Festival, which takes place from this Friday, July 14 to Sunday, July 16. The event sees thousands of people descend on the harbourside for a weekend of music, entertainment, food and drink.
