Bus driver shortage, COVID-19 lead to reduced Huskie Line service
DeKALB – The Huskie Line route system is working on a reduced schedule until Feb. 14 due to a bus driver shortage. As a result, the DeKalb Public Transit is working with Transdev Services Inc. to find a solution to this shortage as soon as possible. 
The COVID-19 pandemic has put a restraint on drivers and passengers, said DeKalb Transit Manager Marcus Cox.
“We still need to provide a minimum, the most appropriate and the safest service that we can because even though students aren’t technically face-to-face in a classroom, there’s still people who need to get around,” Cox said. “But again, we don’t want 15 to 20 people on a bus at this time just because we want to be able to practice social distancing standards as set forth by CDC and others.”
