- Due to insufficient bus drivers, Augsburg transportation services are operating less frequently.
The Augsburg City Services have altered their bus timetable due to continual worker deficits, extending the gap between buses from 15 to 20 minutes. The intention is to improve dependability for commuters, mentioned a representative.
More buses are being brought in on bustling routes during school mornings and afternoons to maintain a suitable capacity during busy hours.
The city services are currently grappling with a driver scarcity, worsened by high employee absences and an increase in substitute services due to numerous construction projects. These temporary staff vacancies cannot be filled up.
The city is exploring alternative solutions to mitigate the issue, such as investing in advanced transportation and telecommunications technologies to improve efficiency. Despite the challenges, maintaining reliable connectivity between the Transport and telecommunications departments is crucial for effective service delivery.
