Stagecoach have issued the following information ahead of tomorrows strikes across Ayrshire with daily strikes set to begin from Monday 9th June for up to 6 weeks.
Stagecoach Said:
"Due to the ongoing pay dispute, Unite the Union has informed us of their intention to carry out further industrial action. This will begin on Friday 6 June, and then take place daily from Monday 9 June for up to 6 weeks."
"We understand that this news may be unsettling for the communities we serve, and we want to reassure you that we’re here to keep you informed and supported every step of the way during this challenging time."
"The industrial action relates to driver pay for our employees based at depots in Ayr, Ardrossan, Arran, and Kilmarnock. Regrettably, this action will disrupt our services and cause inconvenience to our customers. As we play a vital role in helping people stay connected with their communities, we are doing everything we can to operate a limited service using the drivers available to us."
"We’re truly sorry for the disruption and appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this together. Thank you for bearing with us."
