AG Campbell announced a $2.4 million assurance of discontinuance with student transportation services company Beacon Mobility Corporation, which operates through subsidiaries including Van Pool Transportation LLC and NRT Bus, Inc., to resolve allegations that the company colluded to allocate contracts—raising prices—and made false statements regarding school bus transportation contracts in the City of Lynn and Towns of Dedham and Saugus.

“When companies engage in unlawful collusion that increase costs for municipalities, it reduces their ability to fund other critical programs including our libraries, public safety agencies and schools. My office is committed to investigating and eliminating illegal anticompetitive agreements that harm our communities.” -AG Campbell
