I have no idea how many buses come to the school and use the cutout,
actually.

Again - I don't know, although I guess probably a progression, because
like I said, it's only about 2 buses long.

Wow, another interesting idea. I have to say I doubt it would be widely
accepted, though. The bus cut-out takes up pretty much the length of the
sidewalk between the driveway into the lot, and the intersection - maybe
there is about 3-4 feet of regular sidewalk area between the cut-out and
the intersection. I'm not sure what making it one-way would do as far as
access into and egress from the buildings across the street, either - I
wonder if this has been studied.
