Experience Counts
Founded with the goal of becoming North America’s premier safe and service-oriented student and special service transportation provider, Student Transportation Inc. was formed in 1997 by Denis J. Gallagher. With roots that can be traced to New Jersey’s Coast Cities Bus Service established in 1922 by Gallagher’s grandfather, Student Transportation Inc. successfully completed an initial public offering and its income participating securities (IPS) began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange in December 2004. Student Transportation Inc. has grown through a strategic series of acquisitions, bids and conversions and today is the third-largest and one of the fastest-growing student transportation companies in North America. Our reputation for service excellence is the finest in the industry. From state-of-the-art safety and security to regional and local community operations expertise, STA & STC’s top-flight community-based management team has extensive experience in the transportation industry. STA & STC management values the tradition of service established by its family of companies and, in many cases, retains the familiar bus company names and valued staff that local residents have come to know and trust. We are an industry-leader with cutting-edge, environmentally-conscious programs like the introduction of biodiesel fuel in Ontario where we are reducing emissions and promoting better health for passengers and local communities.
