BusPatrol has announced a new partnership with the City of Niagara Falls and the Niagara Falls City School District to improve school bus safety.

The safety program is set to go live on September 1. All 100 buses in the Niagara Falls City School District will benefit from the Bus Patrol Platform, which provides advanced technology to help reduce stop-arm violations and improve student safety.

The technology, installation and maintenance are offered at zero cost to the district. Revenue generated from citations will be used to fund the installation and maintenance of the technology over a five-year term. The hardware and software suite includes stop-arm cameras, 4G LTE connectivity, DVR and storage devices, cloud-managed 360° safety cameras (interior, windshield, rear-view and sideload cameras), and GPS and telemetry solutions.

The technology will use various cameras to monitor surrounding vehicle activity and an always-on 4G LTE internet connection antenna that relays camera footage and telemetry data. These wireless technology packages offer a breakthrough in travel monitoring for safety and peace of mind for parents and school boards alike.
