Busways has been advised of further planned industrial action by the Rail, Tram and Bus Union (RTBU), involving two one-hour stoppages of work on Friday 13 November from 6.30am to 7.30am and 5pm to 6pm.

Negotiations are continuing on a daily basis. If the action goes ahead, it is expected to result in significant disruption to bus service during each stoppage, with impacts also expected in the hour before and after each stoppage as services wind down and progressively return to normal.

These stoppages are in addition to industrial action involving restrictions on the operation of certain buses from Wednesday 4 November, and work bans affecting buses departing depots from Thursday 5 November, which are expected to continue indefinitely.

Passengers should make alternative travel arrangements where possible and consider an alternative form of transport and allow plenty of extra travel time.

Schools have been informed. If a school or charter service is cancelled or significantly delayed, our Operations Control Centre will contact the school’s administration team directly so students, teachers and families can be notified promptly.

Our team is working to minimise disruption.

We encourage passengers to plan ahead and check Trip Planner or Travel alerts | transportnsw.info.
