National Bus Association: Travel notice for commuters

Commuters across Grenada are being advised to adjust their travel plans drastically for Monday, September 28, 2026, as the National Bus Association has announced widespread service reductions starting at 7 p.m. to accommodate an emergency gathering of local bus operators.

The emergency meeting has been called to address a series of deepening challenges that have threatened both the personal livelihoods of working bus operators and the long-term viability of the country’s wider public transportation network. Industry leaders have not yet specified the full nature of the challenges, but confirm the gathering will provide a space for operators to lay out their pressing concerns and collectively negotiate a clear path forward to stabilize the sector.

In a public advisory released this week, the association has strongly urged all regular passengers to rearrange their daily schedules to arrive at their destinations early, prioritizing safe travel home before the 7 p.m. service cut-off goes into effect. Very limited bus services will be available after the cut-off time, meaning last-minute travel plans will almost certainly be disrupted. Transport officials are reminding commuters to plan their routes and departure times well in advance, rather than waiting until the day of the meeting to make arrangements.

The National Bus Association has issued a formal apology for the unavoidable inconvenience this temporary service reduction will cause for residents and visitors alike. It also expressed sincere gratitude to the travelling public for their ongoing patience, understanding, and cooperation as operators work to resolve the systemic issues facing the industry.
