JOHANNESBURG - Gauteng premier Panyaza Lesufi says Putco bus services will resume on Friday.
He has apologised to citizens who use the service.
Over 100 000 Putco Bus commuters were left stranded on Thursday when Putco did not operate due to diesel shortages.
This was because of the Gauteng government's failure to pay the company's subsidies.
Lesufi says the parties have signed a longer agreement.
