Sydney train commuters face disruptions as workers win right to resume strikes over wage demands.

Sydney train commuters face potential disruptions as a court decision allows rail workers to resume industrial action. The Rail, Tram and Bus Union (RTBU) won the legal battle against the NSW government, enabling workers to enforce previous bans and strikes. The dispute centers around a demand for substantial wage increases, which the government deems unaffordable. The NSW government is now considering further legal action to limit the impact on the Christmas and New Year periods. Commuters are advised to check travel apps and allow extra time.
