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
Grants, rebates, and low-cost revolving loans are available for purchasing zero-emission school buses.
Priority for funding is given to schools serving students from low-income families.
The program also covers funding for charging infrastructure and staff training.
Old bus engines must be scrapped to ensure a real reduction in pollution.
