Management and unions at Iarnród Éireann are due at the Labour Relations Commission today in an effort to resolve a dispute over track-laying work on the Midleton line in Cork.
Line maintenance workers in Cork are threatening to hold a work stoppage on Friday in a move that could affect passengers travelling for the August bank holiday.
Iarnród Éireann is vowing to do all it can to ensure travellers are not disrupted on one of the busiest weekends of the year.
