Bus Cancellations Aug. 29-Sept. 1, 2023

August 29th, 2023

HCPSS transportation staff has been working with contractors and school system staff to address the transportation delays experienced today. One of the HCPSS bus contractors, Zum Transportation, has informed us that they will not be able to cover 20 routes due to driver callouts for the remainder of this week. While the contractor currently has drivers in the training pipeline and is working to address the vacancies, they are asking families who are served by the following routes to make alternative arrangements for your students to get to and from school for the remainder of the week.

We know that this creates challenges for families as you adjust to the start of the school year. Please know that HCPSS is engaging with all of our contractors to address these route challenges as quickly as possible, and we will continue to provide regular communications with information as soon as it becomes available to us.
