20/3/20 Corona Virus – Covid 19 and Keane Travel Buses

We’re taking our responsibilities to respond to Coronavirus – Covid 19 really seriously. First and foremost, let me promise you that looking after your children while they travel with us is our number one priority, which is why we’re staying close to the advice from Government to make sure we’re doing the right things. 

All our buses have undergone a thorough deep clean and every surface, bell push, hand rail, seat back, window and door push is being sanitised before every trip.

Of course all schools are closing for the vast majority of students, but some schools must remain open so that key workers children and pupils on an EHCP can attend. We are presently in discussion with St Clere’s Academy, Hassenbrook Academy and Gable Hall School, to ensure that these students will have transport available for them, if they presently use our bus service. More information will follow regarding this sometime later today.

As for those students who must stay at home, we are waiting for Government advice before confirming what will happen regarding bus fare payments. We expect to clarify the situation over the weekend regarding this issue.

Most importantly, I hope you and your loved ones stay safe and healthy during this time.  Keep smiling, wash your hands. Keep in touch with vulnerable people who may be self isolating. We are all in this together, and we will get through it together.

Finally, I want to take a moment to thank our staff and colleagues for their incredible efforts during these unprecedented times. Their efforts to keep our vehicles a safe environment for our school students to travel in has been beyond the call of duty.
