Fund school bus service for all Primary & Secondary state schools students

Background

We propose the funding of a shared school transport service (e.g., buses/vans) to provide safe, efficient, and eco-friendly travel for all school children. We believe such a service would bring significant benefits to our community like it is in other countries.

Additional details

We think funding school buses would: 1. Environmental Impact: Reduce carbon emissions by cutting down individual school runs. 2. Less Traffic: Decrease congestion near schools, improving safety and accessibility. 3. Social Benefits: Encourage friendships and bonding among children traveling together. 4. Weather-Proof: Offer a reliable alternative during extreme weather conditions. 5. Time-Saving: Free up parents’ time spent on daily drop-offs and pick-ups. 6. Child Safety: Provide a secure, supervised travel option for students. 7. Punctuality: Ensure on-time arrival, promoting regular attendance. We think this service would benefit families, schools, and the environment. We urge authorities to consider funding this initiative for the well-being of our community.
