Almost 20 bus services at risk of cancellation

Customers urged to check Bus Vannin's social media for updates

Almost 20 bus services are at risk of not operating today, including several between Douglas and Port Erin this morning (3 October).

The disruption is due to a shortage of drivers while a recruitment campaign is underway.

Infrastructure Minister Tim Crookall confirmed this week that it's not known how long it will take for the situation to be resolved.

Isle of Man Transport has apologised to customers for the disruption, and is urging them to keep up to date on the Bus Vannin Facebook page.
