Clean School Buses: Support Program for Eco-Friendly Children's Transport
This act aims to support the replacement of old school buses with new, eco-friendly vehicles that produce zero exhaust emissions. This will ensure children travel in a healthier environment, and local communities, especially those with lower incomes, will receive financial assistance to purchase these buses. The program seeks to improve air quality and school transport safety.
Key points
