Spare seats available on school buses
A limited number of spare seats are being made available on dedicated home to school transport vehicles for pupils who do not currently meet eligibility criteria set out on Carmarthenshire County Council’s home to school transport.
There must be seats available on the bus serving an existing route so no additional mileage can be incurred.
Letters have been sent to head teachers of schools where there may be eligible children, requesting them to distribute the forms to relevant pupils. No forms are available from the council.
County executive board member for transport services Cllr Philip Hughes said: “This is a sensible solution to fill seats where they are available on school buses for pupils who would not otherwise meet the criteria which is set at a national level.”
