From Door to Door – an Example of How It Can Work

The paper presents the Italian Test site that has been recently carried out within the European project SAFEWAY2SCHOOL. The aim of the project is to design, develop, integrate and evaluate technologies for providing a holistic and safe transportation service for children, during their trip from their home door to the school door. The Italian pilot will focus on school transportation through two equipped buses, serving urban and extra-urban areas differing in the type of service offered and age of pupils served. As a local peculiarity, the role of adult assistants on the bus will be taken into account.
