Only 34% of buses arrived at schools on time the morning of Sept. 5, according to city data. That is the lowest on-time percentage for the first school morning since at least 2016.
Superintendent Mary Skipper emphasized the importance of resolving the delays, stating, 'We know that parents have been frustrated, we continue to work on the issue hard, we're throwing everything at it.'
Many members of the Boston City Council expressed concern over the delays and backed an order for a hearing to examine the issue in depth about BPS transportation.
Despite improvements in on-time bus arrivals to 73% last Friday, officials are still seeking answers regarding the widespread disruptions in the transportation system.
