ROUTES AND BIDDING. 23.3.1 Route and route time bidding will take place fifteen school days after the start of the school year. This route time will be in effect until route bidding on the fifteenth school day of the following school year. Proposed routes will be posted for 3 work days prior to bidding. Any subsequent changes, after first day of posting, shall be immediately posted but are not required to remain posted for 3 days prior to bidding. Should a permanent route become vacant during the school year it will be posted for 3 work days. Routes will be bid based on driver seniority. The driver with the highest seniority will start the route and route time selection until each driver in descending order of seniority has the opportunity to select a route and a bus. Drivers will have an option of choosing buses within those buses which match the route needs. Buses may be reassigned based on justified changes in route. All drivers according to seniority will select an AM/PM route and route time, then select a mid-day kindergarten route and route time; total shall not exceed an eight (8) hour work day and all drivers will be responsible for their routes on minimum day. 23.3.2 When a route increases it may be monitored for up to fifteen (15) school days. If the route is then adjusted, any route that increases in time fifteen (15) minutes or more shall be posted for three (3) working days and awarded according to driver seniority. The benefits will be retroactive to the first day if the same employee stays on the route. If a different employee takes the route based on the bidding in the contract, the benefits would increase for that employee the day he/she took the route.
