BUSD families still adjusting to school bus stop removals and route changes

The district announced in late July that it had consolidated its routes to improve safety, increase efficiency, reduce student ride times, address an ongoing shortage of school bus drivers, and optimize resources. This included the removal of all bus stops on Grizzly Peak Boulevard, which the district attributed to safety concerns. A California Highway Patrol (CHP) spokesperson also told Berkeleyside in August that BUSD's decision to remove the stops was due to (the school district's) own safety concerns after multiple crashes.
