CD bus drivers prevail in court

Today a state court threw out an appeal filed by the Central Dauphin School Board to break a labor contract with bus drivers to clear the way to privatize transportation services.

The decision forces the district to either negotiate with the bus drivers to bring in a contractor next school year in an effort to save taxpayer dollars, or appeal the case to the state Supreme Court.

The board has spent tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees trying to rewrite state labor law.
