NSW: Western Sydney bus drivers hold morning stop work meeting

SYDNEY, Aug 23 AAP - Western Sydney bus drivers are to hold a stop-work meeting after
this morning's peak period over recent rock-throwing attacks in the area.

Concerned for their safety, drivers have already designated a number of "no-go zones".

A Westbus statement says the stop-work - at the Penrith depot - will be after 9.30am
(AEST) and will not (not) affect commuter and school services.

When the meeting is held, services in Penrith, Cranebrook, Glenmore Park, Kingswood,
St Mary's, Mt Druitt, Warragamba and nearby suburbs will be disrupted.

Buses from other Westbus depots will not be involved nor will Hillsbus services.
