Kenora Transit Looks to Purchase New Buses

Kenora's Transit system could be boasting a couple of new buses next year.

The city is in the market for one bus for the conventional transit system, and another for Handi-Transit.

The city's fleet manager, Mike Mostow says the good news is federal gas tax funding should cover most of the cost of purchasing the new vehicles.

Mostow says it will take almost a year to take delivery of the new buses if council approves the purchase at next week's open meeting of council.
