Strikes to clash with weekend rail works
Western Daily Press
|October 15, 2025
PASSENGERS on rail services out of Bristol Temple Meads station will be hit with a double-whammy of strikes and engineering work this weekend and into next week.
-
This weekend, there will effectively be no rail services at all south of Bristol from Temple Meads - with trains to Bedminster, Parson Street, into North Somerset and to Weston-super-Mare replaced by buses, because Network Rail is completing “essential engineering work” on the Great Western Mainline on Saturday and Sunday, October 18 and 19.
At the same time, members of staff in the RMT union who work for the rail service CrossCountry are going on strike on Saturday too, leaving no services at all between Bristol and Devon and Cornwall, and a “very limited” service north from Temple Meads to Birmingham.
