One of the school bus routes in the South Gloucestershire area- Service 967 which served the secondary schools in the Yate and Chipping Sodbury area has recently been withdrawn and aparrently passengers are being directed to use local bus services instead.
I have been thinking for a while whether in some areas there is a case for school buses to be made public ie in areas where there is a lack of a suitable alternative service so that the same vehicle can be better utilised.
Other than health and safety/safeguarding are there any other factors which can dictate whether a dedicated school bus or an existing public bus is more suitable for transporting school passengers?
