Failure to inform operators leads to considerable wasted expenditure for which you may be recharged. The welfare of the pupils is of paramount importance. When operating a local bus service contract ensure the County Bus sign is displayed. Follow the scheduled route and use only the designated pick up and set down points. If it proves impossible to maintain the scheduled timetable, notify your employer.
Check pupils' passes each day to ensure they are entitled to travel.
Never allow any other unauthorized passengers to travel on your vehicles. Confiscate defaced or mutilated passes or those which have been altered. Use your discretion when dealing with pupils who claim to have lost or mislaid passes. Where the service is registered pupils are expected to tender the appropriate fare. This should be given to your employer immediately upon return to the depot, who should inform the Public Transport Unit.
