Niagara Student Transportation Services keeps looking for drivers

School bus delays continue across the Niagara Region.

The Standard is reporting driver shortages, and the usual back to school complications have lead to some problems this school year, but no cancellations.

Niagara Student Transportation Services advises parents to have a back up plan, adding delays can reach almost an hour.

The service indicates recruiting efforts continue, enabling them to cover all routes, while some drivers retire, and others find full time work elsewhere.
