TransLink warned customers to be prepared for disruptions to bus service today, as Unifor’s overtime ban for bus drivers went into effect this morning.

Talks between the union and and Coast Mountain Bus Company broke off Thursday.

This latest action is in addition to the overtime ban for maintenance workers and the uniform ban for bus drivers, both of which have been in effect since Nov. 1.
