EDITORIAL - A transport bungle
Published: Friday | December 4, 2009
Not only are the authorities off to a bungling start in their latest effort at reforming Kingston's bus system, but they appear en route to reintroducing many of the worse elements of what existed up to late in the last decade.
This is not to suggest that what we have now is pristine, or even good, although there is a fair level of organisation and scheduling predictability by the Government-owned Jamaica Urban Transit Company (JUTC) which, admittedly, is a drain on the national budget. It is, however, hard to speak kindly about the buses that operate under of the umbrella of the National Transport Co-operative Society (NTCS), of which Ezroy Millwood is the president of long-standing. The NTCS supplements or operate on routes not run by the JUTC.
