History

These buses were originally used for paratransit service with no destination signs, featuring only a black board labeled "Paratransit". In 2020, these buses were placed into fixed route service due to COVID-19 and were retrofitted with destination signs from retired New Flyer D60LF buses. Despite being reassigned to fixed-route service, these buses do not have interior speakers due to having started out as paratransit buses, so they do not have audio stop announcements and advertisements.
