Castle Bruce bus drivers had to find an alternative area to drop off and pick up passengers from Wednesday of this week.<\/p>\n

Their designated spot, currently near the gazebo next to the E.C Loblack bridge on Riverbank, was changed for a couple of days to facilitate preparations for the launch of Melissa Skerrit as the Dominica Labour Party\u2019s candidate for the Roseau Central Constituency.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday evening the bus drivers could be seen struggling with what to do and where to go. Passengers were likewise not sure where to go to catch their bus.<\/p>\n

Newly-appointed Deputy Chief Lincoln Corbette told Dominica News Online (DNO) that a meeting was held with about 20 bus drivers on Wednesday to discuss and find a comfortable solution, however, the Castle Bruce bus drivers explained to DNO that few of them were aware of the meeting or the changes.<\/p>\n

The bus drivers decided to move back to their original packing area near the Dominica\/China Friendship bridge near the market in an area without the approval of the Authorities.<\/p>\n

Bus drivers could be heard calling each other and their passengers informing them of their location.<\/p>\n

A police officer did come to the scene to assess the situation and agreed to allow the officers to remain there.<\/p>\n

On-site preparation for Melissa Skerrit\u2019s launch began on Wednesday evening; the launch will be held on Saturday 9th<\/sup> November 2019.<\/p>\n

She is the last Dominica Labour Party candidate to be launched.<\/p>\n

The general election will be held on the 6th<\/sup> of December 2019.<\/p>\n
