School bus-tracking app suspended

Tracking software that was going to be used this year for the school bus has been nixed.

Zach Taylor, of Taylor Transportation, said the app, which would allow parents to track the school bus location in real-time, didn’t live up to the company’s expectations.

The school bus operator reported in August that it would install the software, allowing parents to track the bus’s whereabouts, particularly in snowy conditions.

“We are currently abandoning the system,” Taylor said of the School Bus Hub software. “It just isn’t what we thought it was going to be. Perhaps in the future they’ll refine it enough for what we envisioned, but right now we’re going to carry on with our current paper list.”

Taylor provides information and updates via Facebook and asks that parents subscribe to the page.
