Does anyone know for sure if the confict between the bus companies and the taxi/public transport unions has been settled concerning CT and Metro being able to go to/through Cabarete?

... go to/through Cabarete?
The matter goes further than just Cabarete.

The big bus companies do not (or no longer) serve some highly lucrative routes (e.g. S.D. - Punta Cana; POP- Saman?).

It seems that the cost of a burnt out luxury bus is higher than the profit of those 'rutas'. ;)

That's true, but they started the extended north coast route recently, then after about a month, they stopped it...but I still see CT and Metro buses going through town... and hear people saying both theyve resumed and they havent...
