May 22nd 2020 Covid 19 Update

The cases of Covid have been up and down this week but mostly down and it looks like the north has things under control.

With the announcement of the province moving to Phase 3 June 8th and opening up more stuff including the amount of people that can be in a gathering indoors from 10-15. We spoke with the employer about the plan to re open transit and a proposal has been put together that includes moving back to collecting fare, front door loading, increasing the loads that we can take and no mask no ride. It’s important to note that this must go to council and be approved yet but in the meantime the vinyl barriers are arriving and will start to be installed next Tuesday.

We discussed moving back to some normalcy and they seemed receptive to that, moving to the regular summer signup that we’ll be starting to sign on June 5th has some good potential as long as we continue on this path and the bottom doesn’t fall out of all our progress.

The Regular Summer Signup is posted on our website and we start signing on Friday June 5th.

Please remember to wear your PPE we need to continue to keep ourselves safe and healthy, as well keep up the social distancing we’re getting through this together!!
