[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The real solution is less bussing for neighborhoods, because half the average populations drive, and more busses for options. It would still be a net positive savings for APS. But they can't do this common sense solution because the walkability nonsense and the facade that people want a bus for your neighborhood school even though SO MANY drive their kids. Yes, this is well known inside system. [/quote] Yep, you are absolutely right. I do not see how the two current APS proposals (bus kids to closed-Nottingham-swing-space during renovations; bus Swanson kids to under enrolled Williamsburg) are going to work without more buses (which APS says it cannot afford, has no place to store them) and more bus drivers (which APS cannot recruit and retain). Substituting hub stops for some neighborhood busing is the only "cost-free" solution. OP, perhaps when placement of hub stops is an "everybody" problem instead of a "county-wide school-only" problem, it will get more attention? [/quote]
