School Bus & Transport Tracking

Students enrolled in school bus transportation can view their complete daily transit schedule from the My Bus Dashboard (/student/transport). The portal provides clear details on vehicle plate numbers, designated pickup and drop-off times, exact stop coordinates, and direct driver contact information.

What is Shown on the 'My Bus' Dashboard

Step-by-Step: Checking Your Daily Bus Details

1. Open the left menu and click Transportation (or My Bus).
2. The active bus allocation card displays:
   • Route Name: E.g., Route 02 — Bole Medhanialem via Megenagna.
   • Your Assigned Stop: Exact physical landmark (e.g. In front of Edna Mall / Tele post).
   • Morning Pickup Time: Target arrival time (e.g. 06:50 AM). Arrive at least 5 minutes before scheduled departure.
   • Afternoon Departure Time: Departure time from school campus (e.g. 03:45 PM).
   • Vehicle License Plate: Visible on the front windshield of the bus for easy identification.
3. If running late or unable to find the vehicle at your designated stop, click the Driver Phone link to contact the driver directly.

Safety & Boarding Guidelines for Students

• QR Attendance Scan: When boarding, hold your Student ID Card in front of the driver or attendant's scanner to log attendance. Parents receive an immediate check-in notification.
• Assigned Seat Protocol: Remain seated while the vehicle is in motion and follow instructions from the bus monitor.
• Route Change Requests: If your family relocates or you need to switch stops, your parent must submit a formal route update request through the school transport office at least 3 business days in advance.
