Relating to the establishment of a public school transportation task force.

SB 1345 establishes a 20-member public school transportation task force to study and recommend ways to modernize school transportation systems across Texas. The task force includes specific representation: parents from rural, suburban, and urban districts; transportation directors by district type; special education program leaders; charter school representatives; school bus driver advocates; after-school program partners; public transit providers; and school district finance officers. The group must hold its first meeting by October 1, 2025, and provide recommendations to the legislature on improving school transportation services. This bill directly affects school districts, students, and transportation providers by creating a structured process for reviewing and updating transportation policies.
