Unifor, the union representing bus, SeaBus operators and maintenance staff, informed Coast Mountain Bus Company that they will escalate their job action.

Unifor is placing an overtime ban for bus operators on Friday, Nov. 15. This is in addition to the ongoing overtime ban for maintenance employees and a uniform ban which have been in effect since Nov. 1.

So, what does this mean for you – a Burnaby transit user.

TransLink says in a statement that customers should “prepare for disruptions to bus service throughout the day. We estimate the union action will result in reductions in bus services of up to 10 per cent. This job action will be difficult to predict for our customers. Some routes will have gaps in service and there will likely be overcrowding.Customers should give themselves extra time to travel to their destination.”
