The Energy and Utilities Board is not ready just yet to give Acadian Coach Lines permission to make cuts to its bus routes in the province.
The Board wants more information about the ridership and costs of the two routes the bus line wants to chop.
Acadian is asking get rid of its routes from Saint John to Bangor, which also serve Charlotte County as well as the Fredericton to Miramichi routes, which also stop in communities along Route 8.
While asking for those cuts, Acadian has plans to increase the number of express buses that operate between Saint John, Fredericton, Moncton and Halifax.
