PSV Owners Drop Strike Plans | Barbados News

Public service vehicle owners have dropped all plans for industrial action after striking a deal with the Transport Board over the new cashless payment system. Frustrated private operators had been left out of early planning, leaving drivers uncertain about how they’d be paid with card fares. After tense talks, officials clarified the payment process, earning praise from alliance leaders who now assure commuters protests are off the table. The owners are on board to pilot their own cashless system—aiming to eventually merge it with the Board’s—and are pushing for deeper collaboration, including a formal working group and a representative seat on the Transport Board itself.
