More buses coming, says Transport Board Chairman

Chairman of the state-owned Transport Board Ian Gooding Edghill this evening briefly outlined a plan to put more buses on the road.

He told the crowd at a Barbados Labour Party meeting celebrating its first year in office at Carlisle Car Park that a number of parked buses are being readied for inspection and this will add another 40 buses to the Transport Board fleet.

Gooding Edghill also disclosed that an initiative was underway to retrofit another 30 buses.

He also assured that the Government was working to deliver new buses as pledged.

“ We also have to get some new units and we are working on that.

“Have no fear, we will make buses available to the Transport Board,” he told the crowd.
