Danville seeks money for busing

DANVILLE – John Duprey chooses to drive his children, 8-year-old Mackenzie and 6-year-old John, to and from Meade Park Elementary School every day rather than let them walk.

That's because Duprey, who lives in the 100 block of Oregon Avenue, doesn't want his kids crossing busy East Main Street, even when there's an adult crossing guard present.
