Mayor Miro Weinberger Statement Regarding CCTA Negotiations
“The City has been monitoring closely the negotiations between the CCTA and the bus drivers’ union. I am pleased that the parties are meeting again this weekend and encourage them to work hard to find a fair resolution to what appear to be surmountable challenges.
While the City will continue to evaluate its next steps to a possible work action and has been in communication with the School District about their contingency plans as well, the lack of an agreement and a resulting work action will impact Burlington. I encourage those working and families of those attending school in the City to monitor the negotiations over the weekend and to consider the possibility of seeking alternative transportation in the event of a work action next week.”
