Rejected petition Reassess access to bus passes and road safety for secondary school children.
East Riding council believe it is safe for school children 11-16 to walk almost 6 Miles per day to and from school.
Some routes taking them on roads without adequate footpath and lighting.
This is putting children at high risk and expecting them to walk this far could affect their education.
