SIPTU school bus drivers in the Galway area have reached agreement with Bus Éireann, bringing an end to a dispute which had threatened to result in strike action.
SIPTU Transport Sector Organiser, Willie Noone, said: “Following meetings between union representatives and management, agreement was reached concerning issues relating to hours of work and pay.”
“These issues have now been resolved to the complete satisfaction of the members involved.”
The drivers had voted to take industrial action, if necessary, in a ballot held in January.
