Abstract:

Although the student transportation industry has been the largest single carrier of passengers in the United States for several decades, there is very limited information on student travel behavior and preferences, impacts of student travel mode choices on local traffic and environment, reasons why an increasing proportion of students is dropped off at and picked up from school by parents, and ways to improve the efficiency of school transportation. This study collects primary data on student travel patterns in three Vermont school districts, analyzes the data to address a set of research and practical questions, and derives recommendations for improving the efficiency of school transportation and for encouraging students to walk, bike, or take the bus to and from school.
