School Crossing Safety 

School crossings are located at some intersections, pedestrian light crossings and flagged children’s crossings in Casey.

There are a number of ways that you can help ensure the safety of pedestrians and school crossing supervisors a like.

 

Pedestrians

  • Always stand behind the yellow/white line
  • Wait behind the yellow/white line until the supervisor has clearly blown their whistle twice
  • Do not ride bikes across the crossing, bounce balls or run. Walk quickly and safely
  • Always cross at the crossing when it is in operation
  • Follow the directions of the supervisor.

Motorists

  • Make sure you don’t park your vehicle within the ‘No Stopping’ signs to allow visibility for both vehicles on the road and the crossing supervisor
  • Slow down to 40km/h or less in designated school zones
  • Obey parking restrictions
  • Be alert for the operation of the school crossing.

For more information about how you can travel safely in and around schools, learn about our Safe Around School’s Program.
