Train strikes Tuesday 7 – Thursday 9 May

Updated 1 May 2024  

Train strikes are due to take place between Tuesday 7 and Thursday 9 May.  

There is also an overtime ban from Monday 6 May to Saturday 11 May which may alter the timetable of trains that will be running. More details, including a list of the rail companies affected can be found on the National Rail website.  

If the strikes go ahead, this could impact some journeys into campus for graduation. All graduates and staff involved have been notified and kindly asked to make alternative travel arrangements to ensure they can still attend. 

Staff guidance   

Staff should discuss with their line manager whether working remotely is appropriate. After this discussion, if staff are expected to be onsite, they should make all reasonable efforts to attend.   

Student guidance    

Students should expect all activities to continue as planned during the industrial action. Departments and Student Services will communicate any necessary changes directly to those affected.
