Bus company bosses set to step down

THE MANAGING directors of Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus are to step down at the end of the month, the Irish Examiner has learned.

The current contracts of Dublin Bus head, Dr Alan Westwell, and Bus Éireann chief, Bill Lilly, expire at the end of March and will not be renewed.

However, spokespersons in both companies said neither retirement was in any way connected to recent controversies involving both companies.
