Good news for Irish commuters this week; the Luas strikes have been cancelled

Homenews

The planned stoppages for Thursday and Friday will now not go ahead. 

The Luas strikes set to go ahead this Thursday (June 2) and Friday (June 3) have been called off. https://twitter.com/morningireland/status/737528708026634244 The plan was for four-hour stoppages to occur this week, the first of which was scheduled for 3pm on Thursday. However, according to RTÉ, SIPTU and the Luas drivers will now work together over the drivers' pay dispute with Luas operator Transdev, as both sides will seek recommendations from the Labour Court in order to resolve the long-running dispute. As it stands, next week's Luas strikes remain scheduled to occur. https://twitter.com/morningireland/status/737529013334204420
