Potential HSR transit disruptions due to looming transit worker strike


As of 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 25, members of the Amalgamated Transit Union could be in a legal strike position should an agreement not be reached with the City of Hamilton.

This could severely impact Hamilton Street Railway (HSR) bus services and transit customers are encouraged to consider alternatives, should a labour disruption occur. More information can be found on the City of Hamilton’s website.

All McMaster community members who use HSR services to get to and from campus are asked to begin planning alternative transportation options, such as carpooling with a colleague or friend, where possible.

Everyone is encouraged to be kind to others, flexible, and considerate of the impact this could have on students, faculty and staff who use HSR services to commute to campus.
