South Africa?
Wanna see the transport donkey cart solution. Scroll down the page or click here
In South Africa the Department of Transport works together with the Department of Education to support traveling with public transport for school children. But still there are problems on the way to get the children on time to attend class.
Most children need public transport, otherwise they have to walk more than an hour.
Other thing is safety during the children their travelling. If they walk alone they are vulnerable for crimes down the road.first Example
In the Eastern Cape administrative crisis gave children no school transport to attend their classes. At least 40.000 children didn't got any transport.
Other facts why children don't arrive on time at school.
The figures show us that children in rural areas is the biggest group without transportation. These children have walk to school.
Low income gives less opportunity for quality school transport.
The first Quintile 1 shows us the people with the lowest income, these people live in the rural areas. They're income is R0 - R 2044. Compare it to 10 liter petrol (R140) for a car to drive to school.And we see that's almost 7% of there income.
Is there a reliable transport for school kids which they can afford?
Yes, Tracka-trekka.com manufactures taxi carts for transport projects.
Non motorized transport manufactured by tracka-trekka.com gives a solution with additional educational function. The children will learn something about a donkey or animal life.
The carts they produce are pulled by a donkey or horse. Most of the time people choose for a donkey because the purchase and the cost of food it's very cheap.
