New Webpage Design
This new webpage design is still under development. Our main change is a "Members Only" section. Within the next new days you will be receiving an email with information on how to log in to the Members only section. We are still working on the members only section of the site and this should be fully operational shortly. Our main purpose for this new section is to provide up to the minute info on Negotiations or other topics of most concern to our members only. These will from time to time include such items as surveys; feedback comments; opinions and commentaries.
New Logo and advertising campaigned unveiled.
Over the next few weeks we will be introducing our new logo on our letterhead, website and other areas. You can see our new logo on our ads on the Metrobuses. For more info - go to What's New section of this website.
