50 families from Bainbridge Island have their children attending West Sound Academy in Poulsbo.
The new campus of the school is located up on a hill above 305.
Kitsap Transit buses 90 run empty on 305 when they return to Poulsbo from the ferry terminal so I thought it would make sense for one of them instead of running empty ('Sorry not in service") to transport the Bainbridge students who attend West Sound (as well as any other interested passenger).
We had 10 families interested but the parents were concerned about their children's safety: on the way home, getting the bus means crossing the highway while there is no specific crosswalk, no light, no reduced speed.
Kitsap Transit does not care about that: it is the domain of the Department of Transportation.
Anyway. I thought maybe the 90 bus that runs empty could slightly alter its route and go up the hill to safely deliver the students. NO WAY.
