YSB Commission

Yellow School Bus Commission

The YSB Commission was established to examine, review and quantify the potential benefits of dedicated home to school transport. Established and funded by First, it comprises six independent Commissioners: The Rt Hon David Blunkett MP (Chair), Baroness Ros Scott, Lt Col Tex Pemberton OBE, Patrick Harvie, MSP, John Burch and Garth Goddard.

Between Sept 2007 and Sept 2008 CTR have provided the Commission with research support including literature review of existing schemes, the design and analysis of survey questionnaires, and an in depth cost-benefit appraisal of a nationwide roll out of YSB services across the UK.
