The transport company Transdev, with whom the City Hall of Vila Nova de Famalicão has assured the public transport service, has been confronted with a growing number of employees infected with Covid-19, namely bus drivers, who have entered into confinement (prophylactic isolation).
Up to now, no career that is active in the municipality of Famalicense, contracted by the local authority as Transport Authority, has been affected yet, and every effort will be made so that this does not happen. However, there has been the suppression of some routes that cross the municipal territory under the contract between the Transport Company and CIM do AVE, namely, in the circuit, which connects Guimarães to Famalicão.
The City Hall and the transport company are developing all efforts so that there are no disturbances in the routes that operate in Vila Nova de Famalicão, being the maintenance of school transport routes an absolute priority. In this sense, the City Hall has prepared a contingency plan ready to be activated, if Transdev cannot ensure the totality of public school transport.
