LEED v.3 specifically stated that school buses counted toward this credit. They've taken that language out for v.4. And interestingly, the bus route only counts in one direction. So am correct that in calculating student ridership, I am only including the trip to school and not the trip home?

Are school buses excluded entirely from Option 1?

For Option 1: we have a school project where 100% of the students bus in using the provided school buses. How can we account for this on the Active Form or do we not meet the requiremenst of the credit? TIA
