Motorway operators Vinci have insisted services will not be affected by a two-day strike involving staff across the south of the country.

The walkout - which coincides with a winter holiday crossover weekend - began on Friday morning and will last until early Sunday, as unions demand a 1.2% pay rise and an additional €50 a month for staff. The company has responded with an offer of 1.5% without the flat-rate increase.

But Vinci insisted that it has enough non-union staff on call to ensure holidaymakers and other motorists do not face extended delays at toll booths.
