Owner of PA transit buses responds to criticism
The company that owns Prince Albert’s transit buses is defending its maintenance of the vehicles in light of recent criticism from the system’s users.
First Canada ULC owns the transit buses in Prince Albert, which the city pays the company to use. The company is responsible for the maintenance of the buses. The buses themselves – as well as the transit service provided – have come under fire from users.
Chief among the user complaints is the level of heat on the buses. The company is well aware of the concerns raised about cold buses by some of the riders.
With regards to this concern, a spokesperson for the company said the company has done everything it can. “They’re working very hard and very co-operatively with the city council there in Prince Albert,” said FirstGroup spokesperson Stephanie Creech – speaking on behalf of First Canada.
