Shippensburg Area School District Promotes EZ Arrival Bus Tracking App

The Shippensburg Area School District is encouraging families to use the EZ Arrival app to access real-time student transportation information.

The app allows families to view bus routes, bus stop locations, pickup and drop-off times, and receive notifications about late buses and other transportation updates.

To begin using EZ Arrival, families should download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Users can log in with the same username and password used for EZ A2B or BusQuest. No new account or registration is required.

Families who do not use the app will continue to receive transportation information by email from traveltrackerrouting@app-garden.com. The district recommends checking spam or junk folders if transportation emails are not visible in the inbox.

Families needing additional assistance can contact the Shippensburg Area School District Transportation Office.

Who We Are

The Franklin County Free Press, established by Vicky Taylor in 2019, emerged as a beacon of local journalism for the residents of Franklin County. Under Vicky's leadership, it quickly became an essential source of news, particularly at a time when major newspaper publications were increasingly overlooking local coverage.

On January 1, 2022, the torch was passed to Nathan Neil and his firm, Neil Publishing, LLC. Neil, a local entrepreneur with multiple thriving businesses in Chambersburg, shares Vicky's fervent commitment to both the community and the world of local journalism.

Rooted in the heart of Franklin County and powered by its residents, the Franklin County Free Press continues to bridge the gap, ensuring that the local stories, events, and issues that matter most to the community remain in the spotlight.
