Summary
A school bus company from Waltham, JSC Transportation Services, is paying $440,000 to settle a lawsuit alleging it colluded with rival Beacon Mobility Corp. to rig bids and inflate prices in Dedham, Lynn, and Saugus — even lying on official paperwork. The settlement includes a five-year compliance program and mandatory reporting of future acquisitions for ten years, with most funds returning to the towns. This follows a similar $2.4 million payout by Beacon Mobility earlier this year. Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell made clear that such anti-competitive behavior won’t be tolerated — especially when it affects student transportation and taxpayer dollars.
