A bus company has stepped up to help students get to school during the cold winter months.

 

Maple Bus Lines, one of the companies offering bus service between Thompson and Winnipeg, has provided both buses and drivers to the School District which will be used to bring students to both Wapanohk Community School and R.D. Parker Collegiate.

 

The school board says that the system is only temporary until municipal transit service has been restored, and there will be no passes or fees required for students to use the buses.

 

The buses, which started running yesterday, will follow the Eastwood transit starting at 7:45am in the morning on Yale.

 

The route will be repeated until 8:45am, and then run again in the afternoons from 3:30pm until 4:30pm.
