Short Line bus employees today voted to end their 11-day-old strike. According to Short Line’s Web site, full service is scheduled to resume at 3:00AM EST Wednesday. Coach USA owns Hudson Transit Lines, which runs Short Line.

The new contract will offer pay increases of 4 percent to 4.5 percent this year, 4 percent next year and 4 percent in 2010.

In Rockland, the strike has affected about 750 commuters who use Short Line’s express service from the Exit 14 park and ride lot in Nanuet and another 250 commuters who catch Short Line buses from Suffern to Manhattan.
