If you are wondering who makes the call to cancel buses as we open up a brand new school year, that’s our local bus companies.
These operators carefully assess the prevailing weather conditions in the early morning, relying on the information available at that time.
They reach a decision to either cancel or continue with bus services by 6:30 a.m.
The early decision time is crucial as it allows school bus drivers, school staff, and parents ample time to make necessary arrangements for their families in case of bus cancellations.
Once the decision is finalized, it will promptly be shared on the My Big Yellow Bus and 94.1 myFM websites and social media platforms.
