The next step I assume will be to tell these peole that as there is so few of you then it's not worth or not cost effective providing a service. This quite clearly a decision to cut the school bus service. It would have been better if you offered a larger service at a subsidised cost

It is pointless to sponsor anti car idling adverts on TV and then cut back on school bus provision at the same time. Sheer hypocracy!

Pupils walking up to six miles a day is excessive, and will increase will increase concerns about safety on the way to school. Traffic congestion and carbon dioxide emissions will also rise.

No safe walking route. As just leaving primary school, a bus is a necessity for safety. This is only adding to the worries of starting a new school. I have another child to get to primary school also. If no bus; there will be a substantial rise in volume of traffic around the school as parents ferry their kids around to ensure their safety.

If the limit is increased to 3 miles there will be NO Westerton buses. There is also no public transport service from Westerton to anywhere near Boclair. The train station at Hillfoot is still quite a walk on a wet and windy day. The council so-called safe walking route from Westerton to Boclair is not safe especially at busy times. Most people in Westerton are happy to pay for a school bus service.

Even those that are currently under the 2 mile catchment & who are not currently provided transport, are in danger walking to school. As a consequence all parents use cars to transport children to and from school. If the catchment is increased to 3 miles it will cause chaos on the roads and is environmentally unsound.
