Winnipeg Transit will be installing new emergency safety signals on all of its buses by Dec. 15.
The systems will give drivers the ability to signal the public outside the bus that emergency help is needed, as well as alert the Transit Control Centre.
When the signal is on, the bus signs will say “Emergency Call 911” and “Do Not Board Bus.”
