Bus Supply Charters, Inc. COVID Policy

AT BUS SUPPLY CHARTERS, INC YOUR HEALTH AND SAFETY ARE OUR FOREMOST CONCERN.

IN THE MIDST OF THE UNPRECEDENTED COVID-19, WE STAND BEHIND THE CDC GUIDELINES.

FOR THAT REASON, WE ARE MAKING MAJOR EFFORTS TO MAKE SURE OUR COACHES ARE CLEANED AND PROPERLY SANITIZED. BELOW ARE A LIST OF MEASURES WE ARE EMPLOYING TO ASSURE THAT OUR COACHES MEET CDC GUIDELINES.

  • BUS SUPPLY CHARTERS, INC (BSCI) HAVE HAND SANITIZERS LOCATED AT ENTRY DOOR. WE RECOMMEND DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS UTILIZE SUCH DISPENSERS EVERY TIME UPON ENTRY OR EXIT TO/FROM COACH.
  • IN THESE NEW TIMES, DRIVERS AND ALL PASSENGERS ABOVE THE AGE OF THREE, MUST WEAR MASKS OR FACE COVERINGS WHILE ON COACH. FACE COVERINGS ARE TO BE PROVIDED BY GROUP LEADER/DIRECTOR. BSCI WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE TO FURNISH FACE COVERINGS.
  • ALL TEMPERTURES OF ALL PASSENGERS WILL BE DONE BY THE GROUP LEADER/DIRECTOR. ANY PASSENGER WITH TEMPERATURE 100.4 OR ABOVE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BOARD/REBOARD COACH. THESE TEMPERATURES ARE TO BE TAKEN UPON EVERY ENTRY/RE-ENTRY TO COACH.  ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION WILL HAVE TO BE ACQUIRED/PROVIDED BY GROUP LEADER/DIRECTOR FOR THAT PARTICULAR PASSENGER/PASSENGERS.
  • AIR FILTERS IN ALL OF OUR COACHES ARE CHECKED AND CLEANED MONTHLY. THIS CAN AND WILL BE DONE MORE FREQUENTLY DEPENDING UPON COACH USAGE.
  • BSCI HAS IN THE PAST AND WILL IN THE FUTURE EXPANDED CLEANING AND DISINFECTING OF OUR COACHES. WE USE APPROVED EPA DISINFECTANT CLEANERS IN THE LAVATORIES AND THROUGHOUT THE INTERIOR OF EVERY COACH. THIS PROCESS IS COMPLETED AT THE END OF EVERY TRIP AT TERMINALS AND DONE AT THE END OF EVERY DAY BY THE DRIVER.
  • ALL BSCI DRIVERS HAVE BEEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO WIPE DOWN ALL HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS AND ALL HARD SURFACES. THIS INCLUDES BUT NOT LIMITED TO HANDRAILS. ARM RESTS, SHELVES, AND DRIVER AREA SUCH AS STEERING WHEELS AND DASHBOARD AREAS AND CONSOLES. THIS IS DONE DURING THE COURSE OF TRIP WHILE PASSENGERS ARE NOT ON BOARD AND AT THE END OF EACH DAY.
  • LOADING/UNLOADING OF PASSENGERS AND LUGGAGE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF OUR DRIVERS. IN THIS DAY OF COVID-19, THIS WILL REMAIN AS A DUTY OF OUR DRIVERS. WE DO RECOMMEND, HOWEVER, THAT OUR DRIVERS USE GLOVES WHILE DEALING WITH LUGGAGE AND TO UTILIZE HAND SANITIZER WHEN DONE.   THIS CAN ALSO APPLY TO ANY AND ALL PASSENGERS.
  • NO ACTUAL LOGS WILL BE KEPT SHOWING CLEANSING BY DRIVER ON A DAILY BASIS DURING A TRIP. WHEN COACHES ENTER TERMINALS, THE COACHES ARE THOROUGHLY CLEANED AND THERE IS A RECORD OF SUCH.
  • SEATING WILL NOT BE LIMITED AS OF RIGHT NOW. IF THE GROUP IS SMALL, THEN SOCIAL DISTANCING CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED.

THE ABOVE STEPS HAVE BEEN IN EFFECT SINCE MAY 15, 2020. THE ABOVE STEPS ARE IN LINE WITH THE CDC GUIDELINES AS OF THIS TIME. UPON CHANGES BY THE CDC, THE ABOVE STEPS WILL BE MODIFIED.
