CAMERA SYSTEMS INSTALLED ON BUSES AT 12 PSRC SCHOOLS



An additional safety feature will be seen on buses at various schools within the Public Schools of Robeson County this school year.


Bus camera systems have been installed on school buses for 12 schools.


Those schools are as follows: Fairgrove Elementary, Fairmont Middle, Littlefield Middle, Lumberton Jr. High, Magnolia Elementary, Orrum Middle, Parkton Elementary, Pembroke Middle, Prospect Elementary, Red Springs Middle, South Robeson Middle, and St. Pauls Middle.


“This will assist law enforcement in suspected cases of drivers passing a stopped bus,” said Bobby Locklear, assistant superintendent for Auxiliary Services at PSRC.

Most buses are equipped with bus cameras already, he said.


However, the identified schools were determined to have the highest need and most dated equipment, Locklear said.


“We had a limited amount of funds and we were able to cover all middle schools with the funds allocated,” Locklear said.
