[quote=Anonymous]This is a pilot program intended to reduce traffic back-ups around the private schools, caused by parents driving their children to school. http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/montgomery-to-test-using-public-buses-for-private-schools-aiming-to-reduce-traffic/2014/10/08/40048c74-4e77-11e4-8c24-487e92bc997b_story.html And parents driving their children to school (in general, not just private school) definitely has an effect on traffic back-ups. The estimate here is that 10-14% of morning commute traffic is parents driving their children to school. http://saferoutespartnership.org/resourcecenter/quick-facts And no, it's not a revenue generator for MCPS.[/quote]
