BCC Led Routes=Demise of Road Dispatcher Posts

On June 29th the Transit Authority rolled out phase 2 of the Bus Led, Command Center Consoles. Although they won’t say so, we know better. Their plan is to eliminate as many Road Dispatcher posts as possible and push all of that work onto the BCC Dispatchers. This will leave a skeleton crew of Mobile Dispatchers on the Road. This will fail, because we know you must have the actual Dispatcher’s presence on the road or you will have the wild west. We know that for providing bus service, the BCC assisting the Road Dispatchers works, and the Road assisting the BCC does not work. We will be meeting with management again in the next few days in the meantime talk to your Chairman about our response.
