Bus drivers and their employer reach a tentative agreement

There will no longer be a strike by bus workers, as Unifor Local 114 and PWTransit have reached a tentative agreement today.

This agreement comes after negotiations between both parties over a contract that would address the wage disparity of drivers, mechanics, and cleaners.

According to Unifor, the union representing bus workers in the Comox Valley and Campbell River, there will be a vote scheduled for Sunday this week.

Western Regional Director of the union Gavin McGarrigle says the workers have succeeded in bargaining wages and benefits that stay ahead of inflation.
