The annual school bus inspection will begin on July 26 and run through July 28th. The inspection period went well last year; bus owners and drivers were very cooperative.
The same is asked from them this year in trying to inspect the school busses that transport school children on behalf of the Island Government.
It is essential that the busses are in good operational condition. Therefore, all school bus owners are required to have their buses inspected during these days. Bus drivers and/or owners have to have their busses up to standard according to the Traffic Ordinance.
Currently there are according to the records approximately 64 busses. The school bus transportation consists of operators using T, G, P, M, and BUS license plates.
The time of the inspection is from 8:30 a.m. to 12 noon and from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. The location of bus inspection will be in the parking lot at the Jose Lake, Jr. Ballpark.
Drivers and owners are asked to be on time, have all the documents in order, and bring all the busses under one owner at once to improve the efficiency of the bus inspection period.
Please contact the Control, Inspection, and Security (CIS) Department to schedule your inspection appointment as soon as possible.
CIS is also advising all bus owners and drivers who failed to show up for the annual school bus Inspection that they will not be compensated nor be allowed to transport school children on behalf of Government.
