Schools contract coach service - Case study
Earlier this year we were contacted by Medway Community College in Chatham to provide the school with a reliable shuttle service. The service transports Year 11 pupils to a 30 minute maths study class held at Fort Pitt School, also in Chatham about two miles away.
Strict timings are necessary when it comes to this service as two groups need to be transported for their maths lessons; when the first group arrives at Fort Pitt, the coach leaves to collect the second group from Medway Community College. On arrival back to Fort Pitt, the first group is collected and taken back to Medway Community College and then the coach returns to collect the second group.
Precision and timing is crucial for this journey and in order to do this our operations team at The Kings Ferry carried out a simulated run of the journey to ensure smooth transfer of all pupils allowing traffic variations en route.
