When you put your child on a school bus, you’re not just trusting a ride—you’re trusting a system built on safety, care, and accountability. In the fast-paced, high-density environment of the tri-state area, those standards matter more than ever. At Royal Coach Lines, we understand that parents, schools, and communities depend on us to transport their most precious cargo safely and on time.

With over 70 years of service across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, Royal Coach Lines has built a reputation for dependable, student-focused transportation. If you’re a parent or school administrator looking for peace of mind, here’s what you need to know.

Why Safety Comes First—Always

Safety is the cornerstone of any good school transportation provider—but at Royal Coach Lines, it’s the foundation of everything we do. We don’t just meet industry standards; we consistently exceed them through proactive training, rigorous inspections, and a culture of accountability.

All of our school buses undergo regular maintenance and multi-point safety checks to ensure top performance on the road. Our operations are rooted in policies and best practices that prioritize student safety, including:

• GPS tracking on vehicles
• Strict child check protocols
• Seat belt-equipped buses (where applicable)
• Real-time communications between drivers and dispatch

Drivers You Can Rely On

The driver behind the wheel makes all the difference. Every Royal Coach Lines driver goes through an extensive background check, training program, and certification process before they ever drive a route. Our drivers are not only qualified—they’re also trained in how to interact respectfully and patiently with students of all ages.

We know that consistency builds trust. That’s why we aim to assign regular drivers to specific routes whenever possible. Familiar faces on the same bus each day help students feel safe and build positive relationships with their driver.

Serving a Diverse Student Population

In a region as diverse as the tri-state area, we understand that no two school districts are alike. From bilingual schools to specialized programs for students with disabilities, Royal Coach Lines is experienced in adapting services to meet different community needs.

We proudly offer ADA-compliant transportation for students with special needs. Our paratransit team has over 25 years of experience in accessible transportation, and our drivers receive specialized training to support students who require additional care during travel.

Efficient, On-Time Routing

In busy urban and suburban areas, timing is everything. Parents need assurance that their child will arrive at school—and return home—safely and punctually.

Royal Coach Lines leverages routing technology and experienced logistics planners to minimize delays, avoid traffic bottlenecks, and respond quickly to changes in school schedules or weather disruptions. We maintain constant communication with schools to ensure routes are up-to-date and operating smoothly.

Safety Beyond the Bus

Safety doesn’t stop when a child steps off the bus. Our team emphasizes safe boarding and drop-off procedures, including proper supervision at bus stops, route checks to ensure no child is left behind, and protocols for authorized adult pickups.

We also recognize the importance of kindness and emotional safety. Our drivers are trained to foster a respectful, inclusive environment on board—a small but critical step in making students feel secure and valued.

Trusted by Schools Across the Tri-State Area

Royal Coach Lines is proud to be a long-standing transportation partner for institutions like the City of Yonkers and the Greenwich Japanese School. Our reputation is built on more than just time in business—it’s built on the strength of our relationships with the schools and families we serve.

We collaborate closely with school administrators, transportation coordinators, and parents to tailor services and maintain open communication at every stage.
