Labour recommendations accepted by Dublin Bus
Sunday, 18 November 2007 20:32

Dublin Bus services are expected to return to normal tomorrow morning after bus drivers voted to accept Labour Court recommendations aimed at resolving a week long dispute at the company's Harristown depot.

Members of SIPTU and the National and Bus Rail Workers' Union agreed to accept the proposals today.

Details of how two new bus routes will operate are still being finalised but both unions say their members will be turning up for work and normal service will resume tomorrow.

Around 90 bus drivers from the Harristown depot in north Dublin attended a 'positive' NBRU meetings in Parnell Square.

A SIPTU meeting of up to 200 bus drivers at Liberty Hall also took place today.

Both unions met management yesterday at a special sitting of the court to try to resolve the dispute over rosters and two new routes.

Around 500 drivers based at the Harristown depot were on strike since Monday, in a row over new routes and rosters.

The dispute grounded dozens of buses at the Harristown Depot and affected some 60,000 commuters.
