It's descraceful to even have these proposals come into effect, at a time where we are having extra bins planned, the priority is with our children. This raises the consern in this day and age of children being exposed to predators with such a long walk to school which will enevitably lead to walking through quiet and dark areas at certain times of year. This plan should have been shut down the moment the shameless first councillor suggested it.

I must live about 3.5 miles away from my child's located high school! If their was no school bus she would have to jump 2 buses in areas that are not safe, especially in winter nights when it's dark!!

My son would not be safe walking to and from school in the dark. How many council workers walk that far to work? Especially in the bad weather. Why should our children have to!

This bus service, is vital to some kids, the amount of main roads that these have to endure to get to school alone are frightening and gambling with lives. As a former pupil of a South Lanarkshire School my Son relied on the bus service even thou we had to pay £152 per term as my health prevented me walking Him to school. So please don't stop this service.

stop all council perks and weed out deadwood. Children are vulnerable and not all parents have cars nor afford bus fares.

Millions on new schools but cutting down on how to get to the school. This will increase cars outside the schools!

All kids over a mile away from school should get a pass. The amount of beasts trying to abduct kids and your wanting more walking to school? disgraceful
