A strike by workers of the Unite trade union will affect some services operated by First Bus for the Women’s Rugby World Cup semi-final between New Zealand and Canada at Ashton Gate Stadium on Friday 19 September.
First Bus will operate a reduced service - we advise all fans to check before travelling and allow additional time for your journey ahead of the 7pm kick-off.

The matchday shuttle buses will still operate for fans who have already purchased their bus ticket and full information will be emailed to them. All shuttle buses have sold out and tickets are not available for purchase on matchday.
First Bus services operating from outside of Bristol, including the X1, X4, X6, X7, X9, The Airport Flyer, and services operated by other operators, are unaffected.
The strike is likely to cause additional traffic in the Ashton Gate area and we encourage all fans to allow additional journey time.
The roads around Ashton Gate get extremely busy on matchdays and, with no parking available near the stadium, we encourage all fans travelling by car to use city centre car parks and walk to the stadium from there.
