Strike Action

National Express East Anglia (NXEA) have confirmed that industrial action is planned by members of the RMT union on Monday 30th March.  It is expected that there will be no services on the Manningtree - Harwich branch line and that mainline services between Norwich and London will be limited to one per hour in each direction.  Elsewhere services on the Clacton, Walton and Sudbury branch lines will be affected.  Up to date information should be posted on the NXEA website - a link for which is at the bottom of this page.

The dispute is over the planned axing of 300 roles mainly in the NXEA Customer Services area.  However it is understood that there have been no compulsory redundancies and that the reductions have been achieved through reorganisation and voluntary redundancies.
