BREAKING: Dublin Bus strike tomorrow and Wednesday is OFF

Tomorrow’s Dublin Bus strike has official been called off.

The NBRU announced a short time ago that the 48-hour strike which had been scheduled for tomorrow and Wednesday has been suspended so to allow for discussions with Dublin Bus.

“In agreeing to suspend our member’s industrial action we are placing out trust in the WRC (Workplace Relations Commission) and its assessment, following its separate exploratory discussions with Dublin Bus, that significant progress can be achieved over the next number of days in order to find a resolution to this dispute,” said General Secretary Dermot O’Leary.

The third strike this week which is scheduled for Saturday – the day of the All-Ireland Football Final replay – is due to go ahead.

However, Mr O’Leary said that the decision is dependent on these talks at the WRC.

Dublin Bus confirmed the news today that services would run as normal over the coming days.

“Dublin Bus management attended exploratory talks at the WRC today and will continue to engage with all parties at the WRC over the coming days in an effort to find a resolution to this current dispute.”
