The union representing 180 striking bus operations supervisors for TransLink’s Coast Mountain Bus Company (CMBC) says it will suspend any strike action for the time being during the provincial government’s mandated special mediation process.
. . .
Then just after 12 pm today, CUPE 4500 announced it will not be escalating job action until February 2 — when government-appointed special mediator issues his recommendations to both the union and the employer.
This means there will not be another shutdown of CMBC’s bus and SeaBus services or any other public transit service in the region until at least February 2, providing hundreds of thousands of public transit riders with some temporary certainty of the continuity of services.
