After a careful assessment by the Department of Public Transportation (DPT), a decision has been taken to suspend bus service on the following routes until further notice:

• Route 1 from Hamilton to St. George’s via Tuckers town
• Route 8C which services Cedar Hill.

Hurricane-related safety issues have precluded the operation of these two routes at this time, but the DPT has advised that all other bus services will return to normal as of Saturday, 15 October, 2016.

The two effected routes - Route 1 from Hamilton to St. George’s via Tuckers town and Route 8C which services Cedar Hill - will be returned to normal as safety permits.

Bus operators and maintenance staff who are scheduled to work should sign in for duty tomorrow.
