Fresh shipment of 29 buses arrives at schools
In the agricultural and urban heartland of southern Russia, Krasnodar Krai, a significant focus has been placed on modernizing school transportation over the past five years. As part of broader federal and regional programs, the region has received 459 new buses, equipped with modern safety features such as seat belts, anti-lock braking systems, GPS tracking, and more.
The importance of every child, regardless of location, reaching school and returning home safely and on time, has been emphasized by Veniamin Kondratyev, the Governor of Krasnodar Krai. This focus extends to children living in large stanitsas and remote khutors, with 29 new school buses recently arriving in 28 educational institutions, including two correctional schools. An additional 35 units of transport are planned to be handed over by the end of the year.
The new buses ensure the transportation of over 72,000 students daily, with almost 1400 vehicles sent out on routes daily. All new buses are equipped with modern safety systems, tachographs, and navigation devices. The total fleet of the region's schools, approximately one-third of the buses received over the past five years, is currently in operation.
These modernizations aim to enhance safety, reliability, and efficiency of student transport, potentially reducing travel times and increasing school attendance. However, specific data about recent procurements, such as exact numbers of buses purchased, models, or their direct impact in Krasnodar Krai, was not available at the time of writing.
