In the EU-project’s SAFEWAY2SCHOOL technologies, tools and services have been developed and tested in order to improve the degree of routine and to increase safety and security for children going by bus to and from school. A holistic approach and the degree of benefit for the children has been the main focus throughout the work. The legal aspects surrounding the area of school transport is quite vague. There are many different regulations in the European countries covering the topic in different aspects. Another important matter to consider is that different regulations are valid for different modes of school transport such as special purchased school buses and school transport conducted of inline operators, which makes the school transportation area even more complex. Focus in WP9.3, Policy and standardization recommendations, has been to identify areas in school transportation that needed improvement and to enlighten whether existing regulations or recommendations regarding children’s school transport could be seen as obstacles or even be supportive for SAFEWAY2SCHOOL developments. There was also a need to safeguard that project developments were feasible to implement according to existing standards and laws in Europe. SAFEWAY2SCHOOL project developments were not found to be in conflict with existing regulation even though there have been some legal aspects in need of extra attention in order to gain a smooth future implementation. These areas were: How to handle personal data, How warning light detect vulnerable road users, “One child on each seat”. The process was divided in to three phases; Identification-, Generating- and Acceptance phase. Through the process the number of areas, or proposals for better or new regulation, was narrowed down. One important step was to identify the gaps where regulation and recommendation needed to be improved. The connection to the system architecture created the link between the user wishes, user needs and the functionalities of the systems. The five identified functional blocks were then used as a platform for areas in need of improvement. Three activities were conducted to identify relevant regulations/standards: Analysis of the regulation and guideline material collected in A 9.2 Application guidelines and best practices, Collection and description of relevant EU-laws with help of legal expertise; Collection and analysis of the input from SW2S partners including experiences from the pilots. Based on the results from the identification phase two workshops were held. The aim was to generate a selection of proposals on regulations relevant to improve safety and security during school transportation. The first was a workshop (A) held at the Transport Administration in Sweden (STA). Here experts from different areas, such as maintenance, public transport, road safety and experts on children participated. The second workshop (B) was held within the SAFEWAY2SCHOOL consortium. Nine different proposals were identified; School travel plans, no children on roads with speed limits above 70 km/h, standardized bus sign, general seat belt requirements, seat belt reminder, signs at all bus stops, improved driver training, driver support system and use of intelligent bus stops. In order to ensure acceptance for the generated proposals, the participating EU-countries; Italy, Poland, Germany, Austria and Sweden, performed national workshops. The results from the workshops also served as an input to the process. These proposals were then discussed at the five national workshops. Among the nine proposals presented at the workshops, three of them, which gained the lowest acceptance (support for standardized bus sign, seat belt reminder, driver support for bus drivers) were excluded and the six remaining proposals were presented and discussed at the final European workshop, held in June 2012, Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. The majority of the participants at the final European workshop (2/3) showed the highest acceptance for following three proposals; School Travel Plans, Sign at all bus stops, Improved driver education. These proposals have a high acceptance in the SAFWAY2SCHOOL consortium and are seen as useful contribution to safe and secure transportation of children to and from school. SAFEWAY2SCHOOL recommended these three proposals for further development at a European, national or local level.
