SCHOOL AND EMPLOYEE BUS SERVICE MARKET OVERVIEW

The School and Employee Bus Service Market, valued at USD 64.51 billion in 2024, is forecasted to increase to USD 68.38 billion in 2025 and surpass USD 109 billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 6% from 2025 to 2033.

 The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with school and employee bus service experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

School students and employees use bus service regularly to reach their destinations daily. These buses ferry employees and children to their offices and schools. The school or office may own the bus to offer proper facilities. These buses are built with comfortable seating and luggage-carrying shelves. These buses are well-equipped and induced with the latest safety technologies such as electronic stability control, intelligent parking brakes, anti-collision systems, and pedestrian detection systems. In order to improve child safety, cut down on travel time, and lower carbon emissions to protect the environment from harm from air pollution, school and employee bus services refer to forms of local transportation that offer buses and other motor vehicles to transport people to and from school or employees to and from the office.

In recent years, the demand for public transportation vehicles has increased with expanding industry and urbanization. Public transportation vehicles are readily available to the general public and mostly function in local and regional passenger transit networks with set timetables, regular routes, and advertised fares for each journey. The majority of public transportation trips, on the other hand, have set pickup locations and scheduled arrival times, necessitate walking to the destination, or are supplemented by private transportation services like shared taxis. Additionally, using public transportation has several advantages, from saving money to lowering air pollution.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Shutdown of Offices and School Challenged Market Growth

Governments all over the world have suspended public transportation services due to the most serious public health disaster brought on by the new coronavirus epidemic. Furthermore, rigid social standards requiring distance have slowed the expansion of public transportation vehicles. Worldwide public transportation will continue to decline in the foreseeable future since transmission rates are higher in congested areas. The market for public transportation vehicles would also be restrained by steps taken by organizations that started offering work from home to stop the growth of COVID-19. Additionally, because of decreased government investment worldwide brought on by a pandemic-related economic difficulty, the development of the infrastructure for public transportation vehicles would be suspended temporarily.

LATEST TRENDS

Growing Adoption of Public Transportation to Foster Market Growth

Some schools include bus fees in the admission fee, which offers a better option for the child's commute. Public transport has become reliable with time and takes less time to make the person reach their destination.
