VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – If you rely on the SeaBus for your morning commute, you may want to leave yourself some extra time on Wednesday.

TransLink is expecting 14 SeaBus sailings will be cancelled as job action by transit drivers continues, including eight in the morning and six in the afternoon and evening.

Cancelled sailings:

Lonsdale Quay sailings: 7:10am, 7:40am, 8:40am, 9:10am, 4:10pm, 6:20pm, and 7:30pm

Waterfront sailings: 7:25am, 7:55am, 8:55am, 9:25am, 4:25pm, 6:35pm, and 7:45pm

Dozens of SeaBus sailings have been cancelled since Friday after negotiations broke down between the drivers’ union and Coast Mountain Bus Company, the operator funded by TransLink.

Labour experts say bus cancellations could be next – and could happen as early as Wednesday – if the union doesn’t reach a deal soon.
