Citizen Flags Daily Unsafe Bus Stops on Highway

A concerned commuter is calling on the Department of Transport to take immediate action after repeated incidents involving a passenger bus dangerously stopping outside designated bus zones along the George Price Highway.

In a message sent to our newsroom, the individual highlighted a recurring issue involving a bus, which was once again seen stopping on a speed bump near Teakettle Village to pick up students on Wednesday morning. According to the concerned citizen, this is not a one-time occurrence but rather a daily hazard that puts both passengers and other motorists at risk.

“These buses are not stopping at the bus stops to pick up passengers,” the individual wrote. “Something needs to be done and penalize these bus companies as they put both passengers and other drivers at risk.”

The source also mentioned that they had previously reached out to other media outlets without success and urged that the matter be brought to the attention of the newly appointed CEO of the Ministry of Transport.

“This isn’t the first time this same bus is stopping on the bump for students—it’s a daily issue,” the message continued. “Please repost on your page to bring some awareness and let’s call on the new CEO for the transportation department to take action.”
