Welcome


The Yellow School Bus Commission has been established to examine and quantify the environmental, social, educational, time and cost benefits of a nationwide network of dedicated home to school transport.


It has reviewed the yellow school bus initiatives already operating in the UK, as well as examining the North American delivery model.


The Commission's report and recommendations are published on 12 September 2008.


Established and sponsored by FirstGroup plc, it comprises six independent Commissioners: The Rt. Hon. David Blunkett MP (Chair), Baroness Ros Scott, Lt. Col. Tex Pemberton OBE, Patrick Harvie MSP, John Burch and Garth Goddard.
