Members had and continue to have the challenging task of managing the provision of essential public transport services and the health and safety of employees and passengers. The COVID-19 outbreaks in Sydney and other parts of the state during the year required operators to be vigilant and continuously implement controls to minimise the risk of staff and passenger exposure to COVID-19.
