Busloop, a California-based charter transportation provider, announced a renewed community transportation initiative focused on expanding access to safe, reliable, and affordable transportation for underserved communities across the state.
Transportation remains a barrier for many students, families, and community organizations. Through the initiative, Busloop is prioritizing service to school districts, nonprofit organizations, and youth programs that rely on dependable transportation to support educational, cultural, and extracurricular activities.
Supporting School District Transportation Needs
As part of the initiative, Busloop has provided transportation support to school districts facing financial constraints. During recent budget reductions affecting the Oakland Unified School District, Busloop provided complimentary transportation for administrators and students when field trips and school-related travel were at risk of cancellation.
The services helped ensure planned programs and student opportunities could continue during the academic year despite budget limitations.
“Transportation should not be the reason students miss out on opportunities,” said Avtar Josen, founder of Busloop. “We aim to support districts when budget decisions affect access.”
Fleet Quality and Service Approach
Busloop emphasizes service quality and safety in its operations. In communities where aging fleets and limited transportation options are common, the company deploys modern charter buses designed to meet school safety and accessibility standards.
For many students, riding a Busloop vehicle represents their first experience on a charter bus. The company states that vehicles and service practices are intended to provide a safe, consistent, and reliable transportation experience aligned with school requirements.
Pricing and Local Operations
Busloop reports that its pricing structure is designed to remain competitive with traditional school transportation rates, allowing schools and nonprofit organizations to manage transportation costs within limited budgets.
As a locally operated California company, Busloop states that its service decisions are informed by regional needs and local knowledge, with routing, staffing, and policies shaped by community relationships.
Through the initiative, Busloop aims to support continued access to educational programs and school-related activities, particularly during periods of financial uncertainty for districts and organizations.
