Transportation Update

URide: We are pleased to confirm that URide transportation will resume tomorrow, Tuesday, March 24.

Parents in outlying areas: If your child resides in an outlying area where service is running normally and transfers to a connecting bus in the City of Greater Sudbury, please be assured that those transfer buses in the city will be running.

All other school bus routes: Tuesday’s runs will mirror what was operated today, Monday, March 23. If your child was picked up today, the same service applies tomorrow.

mTransport routes: Please note that some runs will be operating through mTransport. However, these vehicles will only be running in the outlying areas — they will not be picking up students within the City of Greater Sudbury.

✅ Areas running as usual: Manitoulin Island • Massey • Espanola • Alban • French River • Monetville • Killarney • Noelville • St. Charles • Warren • Markstay • Hagar

❌ Bus stops suspended – City of Greater Sudbury: Sudbury (all areas) • Coniston • Garson • Falconbridge • Skead • Capreol • Hanmer • Val Caron • Blezard Valley • Azilda • Chelmsford • Levack • Onaping • Dowling • Cartier • Whitefish • Lively • Copper Cliff • Estaire • Wahnapitae • Wanup

Secondary school morning runs – City of Greater Sudbury: We are actively assessing which stops we will be able to resume for secondary students in the city. As soon as runs are confirmed, automated telephone calls will be sent to parents with the details.

Good news on sidewalks: We have been working with the City of Greater Sudbury, and can confirm that many sidewalks near secondary schools have now been cleared to help students walking to and from school.

We know this has been an incredibly challenging time, and we are deeply grateful for the patience and understanding you have shown throughout. Our teams are working hard every day to restore service as quickly and safely as possible.

Following assessments of road conditions across the region in the wake of the recent significant weather event, the Consortium has the following update for families:

✅ SERVICE RUNNING NORMALLY

Bus service will operate as usual for all elementary and secondary students with an existing bus stop in the following areas: Manitoulin Island • Massey • Espanola • Alban • French River • Monetville • Killarney • Noelville • St. Charles • Warren • Markstay • Hagar

❌ SERVICE SUSPENDED

Due to road conditions that are too narrow to safely accommodate a school bus, oncoming vehicles, and students waiting at bus stops, service is suspended for students with a bus stop in the following areas:

Sudbury (all areas) • Coniston • Garson • Skead • Capreol • Hanmer • Val Caron • Blezard Valley • Azilda • Chelmsford • Levack • Onaping • Dowling • Cartier • Whitefish • Lively • Copper Cliff • Estaire • Wahnapitae

📍 WHAT’S NEXT
