CT PLUS has backed down over its rota changes to avoid mass industrial action.

Bus driver representatives met yesterday with the company and Unite regional officer Bob Lanning to continue discussions about a compromise.

Speaking afterwards, Mr Lanning, pictured, said that the company and drivers had agreed to hold regular meetings to avoid any further upset.

‘It’s all peaceful now,’ he said.

‘What they were upset with was the loss of the four-day weekends and cuts to the signing off and signing on time. That has been put back to what it should be.’
