CAW Local 111 and CAW Local 2200 “ITF Action Week" – “More Buses NOW!” Campaign

Gavin Davies Vice-President of CAW Local 111 and CAW Local 111 Youth Committee Co-Chair Ashleigh Rennie organized a protest for the Annual ITF Action Week under the Quality Public Services Campaign.

Members from CAW Local 111, CAW Local 2200 and some help from CAW 114 hit the streets in Vancouver and Surrey at strategic Public Transit sites to pass out information on their “More Buses NOW” campaign to the public..

The “More Buses NOW” Campaign is about Bus drivers being fed up – and taking a stand.

Translnk isn’t delivering enough transit services for our riders.  An ongoing shortage of more than 500 buses means overcrowding, infrequent services, full busses passing up riders, inadequate Night Buses and more problems.  Riders give up on public transit and drive due to lack of service – making traffic more congested and Metro Vancouver More polluted.
