LET’S TALK TRANSPORT.

And yesterday, the heads of the entities that direct the island’s transportation sector met in a hastily called, more than two-hour meeting in an attempt to avert strike action that could have crippled the sector at the beginning of the school term.

At the end of it, all the parties revealed the strike had been averted and the parties would meet again to iron out the way forward.
