A union leader says with more bus strikes in the pipeline, arbitration is now the only way to solve the bus dispute.
Bobby Morton of Unite was speaking after announcing a further half-day strike on Thursday next week.
It’s the second stoppage in a row over pay and conditions, which the Department of Community, Culture and Leisure wants to scrap in a bid to save £300,000 a year.
Mr Morton says there’s now no realistic hope of the two sides reaching agreement themselves:
Visitors told "take extra care" as TT Fan Park to reopen
Access via Grandstand only as areas remain 'soft underfoot'
Sidecars have 'been my life' says Lambert
Greg Lambert says the news has been 'severe' for the sidecar community
Annual TT display "special" for the Red Arrows
RAF aerobatic team display still set to go ahead despite poor weather
Road conditions 'atrocious' say police
Officers urging motorists to ride and drive safely
