Governor Togiola Tulafono announced this week that 10 new school buses have been ordered to improve the Department of Education bus fleet and in preparation for the new school year.

The Governor said the purchase of the 10 new school buses was made as an emergency order out of great concern with the aging, and currently, inoperable school bus fleet.

“The transportation needs and safety of all of our students is a top priority and that’s why we must replace our old bus fleet,” said Governor Togiola. “We need to get those buses off the road for our children, and replace it with new, safe and reliable buses.”

Togiola said the 10 new buses that have been ordered include four 84-passenger, rear engine mounted models that will be shipped from the West Coast in time for the start of the Festival of Pacific Arts on July 20th. The other six new buses will be smaller, configured to carry 44 to 66 passengers and will arrive by the start of the new school year.

“We have many students across the Territory that count on our yellow school buses to get to and from school, so it is important that we spend the money to upgrade our fleet,” said Governor Togiola. “I don't think there's anything more worthwhile than the safety of our children. And a new, dependable and safe school bus makes it even better.”

Governor Togiola said the Department of Education is also working on the purchase of spare parts to repair the existing school bus fleet, which is presently inoperable.
