GRT strike: Region and union reach tentative agreement - CTV News Kitchener

The Region of Waterloo says it has reached a tentative agreement with Unifor Local 4304.

The union, which represents more than 650 transit operators and nearly 90 skilled trades and support workers, will now put the tentative agreement to its members for a vote on Tuesday.

Grand River Transit (GRT) bus service has been suspended since the strike began on Monday, May 1.

Workers are seeking better wages and scheduling provisions.

“We appreciate that customers rely on transit and we are committed to ensuring full bus service resumes as quickly as possible,” the region said in media release.

The region and the union reached another tentative agreement on Sunday April 30 on the eve of the strike deadline. Members voted to reject that deal.

The union ratification meeting is expected to take place on Tuesday at 9:30 a.m., with the vote to follow.

If the contract is ratified, service will resume on Thursday, the union said.

ION LRT trains have continued to run throughout the strike as the service is operated by a separate company.

This is a breaking news story and will be updated.
