Is bus holiday dispute about to end?

Union and Infrastructure 'reach agreement'

A dispute between bus drivers and infrastructure chiefs over annual leave could be drawing to a close.

Agreement has been reached between DoI officials and the union which represents drivers who will now be balloted.

The dispute centres on the amount of holiday drivers are allowed each TT fortnight.

A failure to settle ongoing negotiations have led to drivers ‘working to rule’ this week with them only fulfilling their contracted hours and refusing to work overtime.
