The Estimated Cost Impact of Privatizing Student Transportation in Minnesota School Districts
Author: Owen Thompson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Student transportation makes up a substantial portion of a typical school district's operating budget, and sub-contracting bus service to private firms has been advanced by some as a way to reduce transportation costs. Previous studies have found conflicting evidence regarding the cost impact of privatization. This paper seeks to improve on previous studies by estimating cost equations using data that spans six school-years. The primary result is that privatization acts to substantially increase transportation costs. Estimates using a pooled cross section predicted that going from fully outsourced to fully in house reduced costs by approximately 15.8%.

Privatizing Transportation Systems
Author: Bloomsbury Publishing
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313021422
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Privatization began in the 1970s with Carter's deregulation of some business, and increased with the Thatcher administration in the United Kingdom, the Reagan administration in the United States, and many communist and socialist countries. One area of concern in privatization is transportation—airports, water ports, roads, and mass transit. Privatization can be implemented in financing, construction, operation, and maintenance of the transportation system, the main motives being the belief that the private sector can be more efficient than the public sector, and because public funds are becoming less plentiful for a variety of reasons. The focus is on ideas and innovations for expanding the private role in transportation. Specifically covered are ideas and innovations for expanding the role of private sector in U.S. transportation projects, private financing of urban transportation, airport privatization, water port improvement, toll roads, and competitive contracting for transit services. The distinguished list of contributors includes the co-recipient of the 1996 Nobel Prize in Economics, William Vickrey. The audience for the work are scholars dealing with the discussions concerning the economics and politics of privatization, business people who are likely to be interested in potential opportunities, governmental regulators and staff, and policy makers.

Pupil Transportation and the Law

Publisher: Education Law Association
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
School officials face a daunting array of legal responsibilities in managing student transportation. This monograph identifies and discusses the most important transportation problems facing school officials, despite the considerable variances among state requirements. Following the introductory section, section 2 describes school districts' and school boards' liability for transportation decisions, including school-bus safety and requirements, selection of transportation, care owed to students during transportation, and school defenses in transportation literature. The third section outlines the legal responsibility involved in the school district's duty to transport students, including governance decisions, general financial considerations, funding of transportation, transportation of nonpublic students, transportation for special-needs students, and transportation for desegregation purposes. A conclusion reached in the final section is that legislative or administrative statutes or regulations face judicial scrutiny under federal and state constitutional standards, as well as consistency within the total state legislative scheme. Transportation guidelines, a table of cases, and an index are included. (LMI)
