Clark County schools in Nevada now shuttles school bus drivers between their individual routes and their central “clock-in” location. Formerly, drivers would clock in at the bus barn and drive their bus as far as 40 miles round-trip just to get to their route. Most buses now remain out in the field, closer to the schools, and only one or two buses remain at the clock-in location to act as shuttles.  The program has saved the district $200,000 in gas and maintenance costs, and has the added benefit of reducing traffic near schools and emissions into the environment.
