Auckland bus dispute deal reached

A deal has been reached to prevent further bus strikes in Auckland, it has been reported. 

It is understood the agreement will include $1200 of back-pay for drivers, who are currently on the last day of a six-day strike.  

Details will not be revealed until bus drivers are told at a meeting tomorrow, Newstalk ZB said.  

Tens of thousands of Auckland commuters and schoolchildren have had their travel disrupted by the ongoing dispute.
