‘’At this stage it is unclear what caused
the accident, but the vehicle operating company, which is contracted by the
City to operate the N2 express service has suspended the bus driver, as is
required by the operating contract. Once the investigations is complete, an
accident report will be submitted to the City; the finding of which will inform
any steps that may need to be taken. The City is committed to provide a world
class transport system to our residents with passenger safety being non-negotiable,’’
said Rob Quintas, Mayco Member for Urban Mobility.
