TORRANCE, Calif. — It’s time again for SCHOOL BUS FLEET’s annual Contractor Survey.
Last year’s survey covered topics ranging from unions and the U.S. healthcare reform bill’s possible effects on bus companies to bus buying, driver shortage and transit encroachment.
This year, we will touch on several of those topics, as well as address such issues as rising fuel prices, technician shortage and funding for reducing bus emissions.
Managers and executives at school bus contractor companies are encouraged to participate.
