National Express Transit is set to take over operations after a unanimous approval on Monday.
The city’s former operator was RATP-DEV, which has faced scrutiny over transparency and timeliness issues.
The city contracts with a third party to comply with state law so workers can unionize.
Channel 9 was told that no bus drivers will lose their jobs as a result of the switch.
