Greater Sudbury Transit Tests Operator Compartment Barrier

A transit operator compartment barrier will be installed on one Greater Sudbury Transit bus on a trial basis, beginning the week of March 5, 2018. The barrier will remain in place until mid-February 2019. 

The safety of passengers and operators is the top priority of the City of Greater Sudbury. Transit operator compartment barriers are built into the driving compartment of the bus. The barrier allows verbal communication and is made of a transparent material so that operators always have a clear view of the bus interior, rearview and side mirrors.

Greater Sudbury Transit welcomes passenger feedback about the transit operator compartment barrier via email at transit@greatersudbury.ca or by telephone at 705-675-3333.
