Northwestern’s outside shuttle driver vendor has reached a tentative agreement with drivers after facing a potential strike, Director of Transportation & Parking Services Merrill Silverman announced in an email Tuesday. As a result, normal shuttle service will continue throughout the University, Silverman said. 

In a March 30 release, Teamsters Local 727, which represents WeDriveU shuttle drivers, said about 50 workers “voted overwhelmingly” to strike, citing low wages and a lack of communication with WeDriveU management.
