Establishes student transportation coordinators in each county to improve school bus services in Hawaii.
The bill addresses chronic bus driver shortages in Hawaii's school bus services, which have led to route cancellations and consolidations, particularly affecting middle and high school students in central Oahu and students on the east side of the island of Hawaii. It aims to establish and fund student transportation coordinators in each county to enhance transportation services. The bill appropriates $400,000 for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 for four full-time positions.
