Brisbane is set to experience a second peak-hour strike by CityCat ferry workers within two weeks, according to multiple reports. The action comes as negotiations remain unresolved in a dispute between the workers and the CityCat operator. The strike is scheduled for peak commuting times, raising concerns about disruptions to public transport services along Brisbane’s river network. Labor has called on the Lord Mayor, Adrian Schrinner, to intervene in the dispute and help resolve the standoff. The reports describe the industrial action as part of an ongoing workplace disagreement, rather than a one-off stoppage. No outlet in the provided summaries indicates that the parties have reached an agreement ahead of the planned strike. The situation is being closely watched by commuters and officials given the timing and the fact that it follows a similar peak-hour disruption reported recently. Overall, the coverage is consistent on the planned timing, the recurrence of industrial action, and Labor’s request for mayoral involvement in efforts to settle the dispute.
