As Boston schools prepare for in-person learning, the bus drivers union has demanded regular, in-yard COVID-19 testing, vaccinations on the front lines and strict adherence to safety procedures. The demands came in a release Tuesday before a rally at the headquarters of Transdev, Boston Public School s bus contractor. There can be no safe school bus transportation while the pandemic continues to rage and vaccinations are unavailable to our largely Black, Brown and elder members, the union, USW Local 8751, said in the release.
