I was due to bring all of my support and admin teams back into the office next week after 6 months at home. The vast majority of them (around 110) rely on public transport - specifically buses to get them into our offices.
As the guidance now states public transport is only for essential travel only (which includes work) we've taken their views on a Teams call today and we'll be asking them all to continue working from home until further notice.
I'm hearing similar things from my peers across businesses as well.
