Safer Bus Routes: Avoiding “Danger Zones” Takes A Two-Pronged Approach
Summary
The most common types of criminal activity your bus routes and stops must keep a safe distance from are high crime areas, reported drug zones, and any known sex offender locations. If it’s impossible to avoid a threat zone, you may then decide to make individual house stops for students in that location in order to keep them out of harm’s way. With danger zones and routing information in one software program, you should receive alerts when adding a new stop within a user-defined proximity to a sex offender or known drug area. Your school transportation management system should feature detailed maps that show you streets with lower traffic volume, sidewalks and unobstructed visibility so students are kept safe from pedestrian accidents and fatalities. With total insight into the street-side characteristics of your bus routes, you’re able to establish the proper protocol to ensure students are picked up and dropped off at the most secure locations.
