Transportation
Student Transportation Services
The MUJC provides member school districts with a cooperative transportation program that is efficient, economical, and safe. Member districts can contract for transportation services, such as to and from school pupil transportation, field trips, athletic events, vocational programs, intra-district shuttles, preschool disabled and extended day (wrap around) programs.
Transportation Fleet
MUJC's new fleet of 112 vehicles include mini-vans, 9 passenger vans, wheelchair vehicles, 24- and 54-passenger buses.
For additional information and fees, please call the Transportation Department at 908-790-9270.
GPS
Vehicles are equipped with GPS tracking systems. This technology allows the dispatch office to track routing, times and vehicle locations. This system helps us to improve routes and provide evaluative information about drivers.
Vehicle Maintenance Program
MUJC now provides a vehicle maintenance program to member school districts. Districts now have the option of using this service rather than local garages or dealers. At times MUJC may be able to provide a loaner vehicle while the district vehicle is in for repair or service. The member districts set the hourly rates and other pricing for repairs. The cost of parts needed for repair are billed at the cost charged to MUJC.
Staff Training Program
MUJC provides a comprehensive training program to all drivers and school bus attendants. These programs include defensive driving programs and seminars discussing procedures for transporting students with disabilities.
Testimonials
My husband and I wanted to take the opportunity to let you know how pleased we were with our bus driver and bus aide...always on time, very personable and cared for the students...In the past [our son] would...ask to stay home or for me to drive him to school. Since the transfer we saw a big difference. [He] would talk about the bus from the time he came home to the time he went to bed and that was the first thing he asked about when he woke up...We were so happy to see a change in our son's behavior.
I am writing to you to express my appreciation for [my daughter's bus driver]...[She] was not only reliable and professional, she was kind, patient and loving to my daughter, as well as all the children on her bus route.
Thank you for all your "happy" morning greetings everyday! Your smile helps [my son] get his day off to a good start. Thank you for all the time you spend watching cars, counting the colors and spotting Fed Ex vans! I know he really enjoys the time he spends with you.
Thank you so much for taking such good care of [my son] on the van. You seem very kind and patient and it was a comfort to us knowing you were there to keep him safe and happy.
