MyCiTi service still being affected by unprotected strike, intimidation
29 October 2018
Commuters are advised that the MyCiTi service is still not operating according to schedule due to some bus drivers participating in the ongoing unprotected strike, and the intimidation of those who do want to work. Read more below:
The City regrets to inform commuters that the MyCiTi service is not operating at capacity due to the fact that some bus drivers are still participating in the unprotected strike that has now entered its third week.
Furthermore, those bus drivers who do want to work are being intimidated and threatened by their colleagues who have been participating in the strike since Monday, 15 October 2018.
This has an impact on the number of buses that are available to service the routes, meaning that the service cannot operate according to the normal time schedules and at the frequencies needed to meet the demand in the peak hour periods.
