Inspecting Canberra’s new trams

On Monday July 30, we were out inspecting Canberra’s new trams and chatting to our new drivers ahead of LRV’s taking the tracks.

The Government expect drivers to be on the tracks and transporting passengers by the end of the year.

Dave Woollams, RTBU NSW Bus & Tram Division President said “It was fantastic to meet our new drivers in Canberra and to be out on the tracks inspecting the new trams, ensuring they are up to scratch for our members.

“We’ve already established a solid Greenfields Agreement to cover these new drivers and we look forward to representing a strong and unionised workforce on the Canberra Light Rail.”
