joburgcityFin24 reports that Johannesburg’s Metrobus may have to reduce its services due to the unresolved petroleum workers’ strike.  

Metrobus spokesperson Esther Dreyer said on Tuesday that 90% of their busses were operational and she did not believe there would be too much disruption.  “At the moment, everything is fine,” she said.  “It all depends on the petrol supply, so it is important to warn our passengers.”  This comes after Metrobus released a statement on Monday evening warning customers that the petrol strike had impacted its operations.  Wage talks covering oil refineries and their distribution networks stalled last week as Ceppwawu, the largest of the three unions in the sector, called a strike on Thursday.
