bus ride from BSG to Norton?

OK, let me re-ask this. When the first student gets on the bus, how long will it take to make all the stops and get to the school? and OK, if you start on the 4-lane then sure, you are looking at about 12-15 minutes from BSG to Norton but then you add another 5 to get to the other side on Norton and to the proposed school.

5 minutes to get from one side of Norton to the other on the Bypass? Are they stopping for gas?

If it's planned right, only 1 bus should be making stops along the 4-lane... the rest will be "express".

Are there any houses on the four lane?

From BSG to Norton? None that I know of. From BSG south to the county line there are.

So what the poor pampered little buggers will have a longer bus ride. My wife caught the bus in Breathitt county at 6:30 every morning and was on it for an hour+ to get to school everyday. I have seen many times coming back from Breathitt early to make it to work kids standing out waiting on the bus as early as 6:00 and they do just fine, and these are kids out on Hwy 15 only about 15-20 minutes from the school. Breathitt is a much larger county, (as far as geographical size not population) and doesn't have two major 4-lane highways criscrossing it. Come to think of it, 15 is the only major highway in the county and most of it is 2 lane. Of course they are now working on building a new 4-lane hwy. but where it is won't help school traffic throughout most of the county.
