Help Shape Safer School Travel
Moira Shire Council is developing School Travel Plans to help make journeys to and from school safer and easier for students and families. As part of this project, students, parents, carers, school staff and community members are invited to share their experiences, ideas and road safety concerns.
Feedback can be provided by completing a survey online, returning a hard copy survey available through the school, or adding comments to the interactive map. Community feedback will help identify barriers to walking, cycling and other active travel options, as well as opportunities to improve safety around schools and along school travel routes.
The information collected will be used to help develop School Travel Plans and inform future road safety initiatives and infrastructure improvements within our community.
We encourage all members of our school community to participate and help shape safer school travel for current and future students. We particularly encourage our Sacred Heart parents and carers to identify any traffic or road safety concerns around our school. Your feedback will help ensure local issues are recognised and considered as part of future planning and improvements to traffic management and road safety in the Sacred Heart area.
