DOE restores 3 previously suspended school bus routes on Hawaii Island

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – The state Department of Education announced Friday that three previously suspended school bus routes in East Hawaii Island will be reinstated on Monday.
The routes will be serviced by provider Ground Transport Inc.
The following school bus routes will resume service on Monday, Nov. 4:
Hilo-Waiakea Complex Area: 1 route
Kau-Keaau-Pahoa Complex Area: 2 routes
The DOE said the restoration of the three routes will bring the total restored routes to 112 — roughly 80% of impacted routes.
Officials are still working to restore the remaining 26 suspended bus routes.
The Education Department said Ground Transport is actively recruiting new drivers, leveraging the governor’s emergency proclamation to streamline the hiring process.
