Bus driver shortage in P.A. stalls extended-hours transit trial

Mar 3, 2023 | 11:33 AM

The City of Prince Albert won’t be able to extend its transit hours as planned due to a shortage of available bus drivers.

They originally planned to roll out an extended-hours trial on Mar. 13 and have it run until the end of March 2024.

A new date has not been set as of yet.

The city said they are working with contractor First Bus Canada to hire more drivers to be able to offer the extended hours.
