This fall, Blue Bird Corporation will implement their most comprehensive school bus safety upgrades in its history. At MacAllister Transportation, all Blue Bird buses will have IMMI seats and high-intensity LED lighting. Additionally, we will be offering three-point seat belts at no additional charge to customers. Blue Bird’s new 4Front steering wheel with airbag will be available on production units starting October 2025. These safety features will help ensure the well-being of both drivers and passengers. Other IMMI seat options will still be available to meet specific customer needs.

Our Blue Bird propane school buses emit fewer greenhouse gases and total hydrocarbon emissions, virtually eliminating particulate matter. Equipped with the 7.3L Ford engine and the ROUSH CleanTech fuel system, these buses meet the low NOx standard of 0.02 g/bhphr, making them 90% cleaner than the EPA's strictest heavy-duty engine regulation. In fact, it would take 10 Blue Bird Vision Propane buses to emit the same amount of NOx as a single clean-diesel bus.
