JOHANNESBURG – Gautrain announced that its train service will not be available this weekend after wage negotiations with Numsa stalled.
The union and the Guatrain Mbombela operator returned to the negotiating table Thursday but could not reach an agreement.
Numsa-affiliated workers are on strike demanding an 8% pay increase, but their employer offered a 4% raise.
Gautrain said services were canceled on Saturday and Sunday, adding that his contingency plans cannot support weekend operations.
