  1. Plan B Route Follow-up

  2. Plan B Routes • Purpose- allow schools to open on days when inclement weather would normally result in school closure • Method • Move stops from smaller roads that are unplowed to more heavily-travelled roads that are plowed • Eliminate sections of roads that do not have a reliable turnaround • Implement county-wide during each incident

  3. 2013-14 Decisions vs Surrounding Counties • Final Results for 29 Occurrences • Closed • ACPS 38% • Surrounding counties 54% • Open full day • ACPS 45% • Surrounding counties 23%

  4. Route Data

  5. Student Data

  6. Surrounding Counties • Surveyed eight surrounding counties • Seven do not have a Plan B • Some tried and experienced dramatic drop in attendance • One has a Plan B (Greene) • Total enrollment 3,128 (vs 13,623) • Area 157 sq miles (vs 724) • Have used Sheriff vehicles to transport Sw/IEP • 15% of students impacted • ACPS open 62%, GC open 46%

  7. Challenges • Consolidation increases risk at stops • Line of sight reduced • Slippery roads • Crowded stops • Impact on Sw/IEP with existing tport vehicles • Added cost for Routing • Must maintain two sets of routes (1 FTE-worth of added work) • Routes would have different arrival times

  8. Challenges Driver and staff attendance reduced PM Supervision Implementation logistics – need to implement county-wide

  9. Advantages Less disruptive to parents’ work schedule Possibly more class time Possibly more meals served

  10. Current Activities Automatic chains VDOT coordination Fuel additive
