No flashing lights / stop arm on city streets. Edmonton Traffic Bylaw 5590 s83 prohibits alternating flashing lights and the stop arm on regular city streets — all stops on Route 8277 are urban. Use the curb-stop procedure below instead.
At every stop: signal 100 m ahead → pull fully to the curb → park/neutral + parking brake → mirror check → open door → count children on/off → seated before moving → headcount before departing.
Drop-offs: children exit to the sidewalk side only. Anyone who must cross goes to the intersection crosswalk — wait until every child is on the sidewalk and clear.
End of EVERY run: walk the full aisle and check every seat — a sleeping child must never be left on the bus.
Height: legal max 4.15 m; this 72-passenger bus is ~3.2 m. No low-clearance structures on Route 8277.
Phone: mount it, don't hold it. Alberta: hand-held use while driving = $300 + 3 demerits. This app is voice-first — don't touch it while moving.
