Further strike action by public transport workers in a dispute over pay will halt buses and trains on three key dates before Christmas.

Last Friday, December 1 saw significant disruption when no bus and rail services ran for 24 hours during the first public transport strike in Northern Ireland for eight years.

Workers from Unite, GMB and Siptu unions took the industrial action at the same time as school support workers.

More public transport stoppages on Friday, December 15th; Saturday, December 16th and Friday, December 22nd are set to be announced on Wednesday.

Could impact on the Racing and Connacht games.

Bus and train passengers in Northern Ireland will face further disruption this month after unions announced three more December strike dates.

Employees of the public transport company Translink are taking further industrial action in their ongoing dispute over pay.

The next 24-hour strike dates are Friday 15 December; Saturday 16 December and Friday 22 December.

The last strike on Friday 1 December caused widespread disruption.

No public buses nor trains were operational for a 24-hour period.

The weekends leading up to Christmas are usually among the busiest periods for the hospitality industry.

Businesses in Belfast reported a high number of cancellations during the first strike as customers could not arrange transport to and from restaurants and bars.
