When a school bus route includes a bus stop that requires a child to cross a roadway, the school bus must be equipped with an extended stop arm that partially obstructs the roadway. A school child may not cross a roadway to enter or exit from a school bus unless the roadway has been partially obstructed by the extended stop arm. Extended Stop Arm must:
• Be equipped with additional flashing red lights as specified in 61-9-402, MCA;
• Be capable of extending a distance of at least 54 inches from the school bus; and
• Be at a height of not less than 36 inches.
Extended Stop Arm should have an additional illuminated stop sign located at the furthest distance from the school bus.

A county transportation committee (CTC) must act to approve or not approve all bus routes established by districts. The CTC must also act on all applications for increased individual payments due to isolation. Approval of board of trustees for increased payments is required prior to CTC action.
