Government and players in the island’s transportation sector have agreed on a path forward that will see more regulations coming to the industry.This was revealed during a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Compact signing for the Future of Public Transportation in Barbados between Government entities and several private organisations representing public service vehicle (PSV) owners and operators.Speaking at the event which took place at the Barbados Water Authority’s Pine, St Michael, headquarters on Friday morning, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport, Works and Water Resources Santia Bradshaw said Government had met with the players and ironed out some of the “teething issues”.She said areas such as the establishment of a Mass Transit Authority and making public transport more efficient were addressed in the Compact.
The head of one of the island’s public service vehicle (PSV) organisations wants an independent body established to monitor and have greater overall control of the privately-run transportation sector.Chairman of the Alliance Owners of Public Transport (AOPT) Roy Raphael made the call as he said order needed to be restored to the sector urgently, with some workers not adhering to rules and regulations.He told Barbados TODAY that based on information gathered by his organisation, 51 per cent of conductors were not registered as required under the Road Traffic Act and there were 25 pirate PSVs “just running all about”.
