Road congestion also feared as RMT strike on Thursday heralds 10 days of action across much of Great Britain’s transport network
A strike by train staff in the RMT union will severely affect rail services across Great Britain on Thursday, heralding the start of 10 days of transport disruption and delay around the peak summer holiday getaway weekend.
About 20,000 RMT members at 14 train operators will strike for 24 hours on Thursday and again on Saturday, coinciding with the end of a week-long overtime ban by train drivers in the Aslef union.
