Panama Reviews Public Transport
Panamanian authorities carried
out an unprecedented review to
detect public transportation
difficulties after a bus burned
and killed 18 persons.
Officials from the Bus Traffic
Authorities (ATTT) and the
Police and Traffic Agents began
to check up the physical and
mechanic conditions of buses.
Over 90 were taken out of
circulation because of damage
that had caused problems to
public transport users.
The drivers went on strike in
response to that measure.
Nevertheless The Transportation
National Chamber (CANATRA)
announced it would call off the
measure and fix up buses after
the meeting with the government
officials.
