Metrobus services disrupted, commuters unsettled

 

JOHANNESBURG - Johannesburg bus service, Metrobus, has been crippled by strike action on Thursday.

The service says this is due to a wildcat strike by several employees. 

It’s understood their action started on the afternoon shift on Wednesday.

Metrobus says the strike is expected to affect all routes. 

They’ve also opted to close Metrobus ticket sales outlets due to recommendations of a security threat analysis. 

However, South African Municipal Workers Union members on the ground say there is no strike action but rather an appeal to have the driver grievances addressed by employers.

 

 

A notice was shared on social media to inform commuters of the service disruption.

Some users were far from understanding, unloading some of their frustrations.
