Govt Urged To Facilitate Transdev And SIPTU Talks
The government has been urged to facilitate fresh talks between Transdev and SIPTU, in an effort to prevent further disruption over the St. Patrick's Day weekend.
Making the call Sinn Féin Councillor, Nic Cormaic, said: "The Luas has become an integral asset for the city. Many of my own constituents rely on the Luas to get to work and to commute. The intransigence of the Transdev management is what is prolonging the struggle of both Luas workers and commuters.
"Transport Infrastructure Ireland need to encourage parties to come to the table."
