SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Centro has reported that another one of its Syracuse bus drivers has tested positive for COVID-19.
The employee last worked on April 27. The bus operator was wearing a mask and did not have close contact with customers due to Centro’s recently imposed practice of having riders board via the rear door and restricting access near the front of the bus, Centro noted.
The bus driver drove the following routes Monday to Friday:
Five Centro bus drivers and three other employees (for a total of eight) have tested positive for COVID-19 as of Wednesday, Steven J. Koegel, VP of communications and business planning, tells CNYBJ.
Centro says that it continues to disinfect each of its buses daily, and many of its buses more than once a day using a germ-killing disinfectant. It also provides bus drivers with access to gloves and hand sanitizer before their shift begins.
Centro is the public-transportation provider for Onondaga, Oneida, Cayuga, and Oswego counties.
