Rail travel disruption on 18 and 20 August  

Information for staff on ScotRail strike action on Thursday 18 and Saturday 20 August 2022.

There will be disruption to ScotRail services on Thursday 18 and Saturday 20 August due to strike action by Network Rail Scotland signallers and maintenance staff. 

Very limited rail services will be running and ScotRail are advising their customers to only travel if necessary. If you must travel, ScotRail advise you to check your entire journey before travelling. 

Please speak to your line manager ahead of the strike days if you have any concerns about getting into work or would like to discuss working from home.  

Car parking monitoring will be suspended for staff on these dates to provide more flexibility for staff travelling to work on our campuses. The position will be reviewed for future strike dates.   

The most up-to-date information on the strike action can be found on the ScotRail website.
