One 14-year-old girl dropped off by an AISD bus can get home by walking along Loop 360 with no sidewalk, an hour down a trail, or by cutting across Bull Creek and steep concrete embankments.

It's the new hub system.

Important story by KUT's @GretaDGV:

kut.org/education/2026… Austin ISD continues to add bus hubs as parents raise concerns about dangerous routes For the first two weeks of school, Daphne Harrington had to take off work early or have her daughter walk along Loop 360 on her way home from school. AISD officials say they have added hubs in response to parents' concerns.

In case you missed it, AISD is going to start dropping off this teenager at her apartment complex, which the bus was already driving past anyway. This was only because of Greta’s reporting.
