Warrington's Own Buses

RE: WBT Network Warrington
Just thought I'd post the following in case anyone is planning on using Network Warrington in the next couple of weeks:

BUS drivers at Network Warrington have announced plans for a series of one-day walk outs in a dispute over pay.

Members of the Unite union which includes drivers and other staff had already been involved in industrial action by refusing to work overtime and a work to rule from last Saturday.

But they have issued bosses at the bus company with a notice to end that action and in its place plan to take part in seven days of strikes over seven weeks.

The first day of action is next Friday, September 13 followed by Saturday, September 21; Sunday, September 29; Monday, October 7; Tuesday, October 15; Wednesday, October 23 and Thursday, October 31.

The executive directors along with the chairman of Network Warrington, are holding a closed mass meeting with the staff and union on Tuesday to discuss pay issues and the way forward.

The Network Warrington website will be updated regularly to notify customers of any service cancellations and the company asks customers visit networkwarrington.co.uk before travelling.
