Abstract:

Pupils are being transported more efficiently in North Carolina because of several key transportation initiatives, including the installation of a statewide transportation information management system (TIMS). TIMS is a computer-assisted program of optimized school bus routing and scheduling provided to each local education agency in the state. Further details on TIMS are provided in this article, including information on its funding, implementation, costs, and benefits.
