👉A recent review by Deloitte, commissioned by Ontario's Ministry of Education, suggests that adjusting school start and end times in Ottawa could help resolve ongoing school bus issues. The review, focusing on the Ottawa Student Transportation Authority (OSTA), aims to address a projected $7 million funding gap. Recommendations include synchronizing school schedules, reducing the number of buses, and extending student bus rides within the one-hour limit. While OSTA accepted most recommendations, it noted that significant changes to school "bell times" would require approval from the school boards. The harmonization of school calendars was the only recommendation rejected.✅ . 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐞- 𝐀𝐭 𝐚 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮!
