Berlin bus drivers demand no front boarding without drivers’ consent!
The decision of the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) management to postpone the reintroduction of front boarding planned for the beginning of May is an important success in the interest of all BVG workers. Now it is necessary to continue the mobilisation that has begun and to discuss with as many bus drivers as possible the need to prevent front boarding from taking place in the future without the drivers’ agreement.
Management, hand in hand with the staff council and the Verdi trade union, will no doubt attempt to set a new date to begin front boarding within a short time. To this end, measurement of aerosol levels is now to be carried out directly in the driver’s cabin.

Berlin - It s almost Berlin s logo: Chaotic but also somehow attractive. And now it s on its way out. Urban Jungle is the official name for the red, blue and black spots that are reminscient of teeming worms and that form the anti-graffitti pattern the BVG public transport authority has used on its upholstery since 1986.
