There are a number of ways that you can help ensure the safety of pedestrians and school crossing supervisors alike.
Pedestrians
- Always stand behind the yellow/white line
- Wait behind the white line until the supervisor has clearly blown their whistle twice
- Do not ride bikes across the crossing, bounce balls or run. Walk 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 whilst flags are displayed, this impacts negatively on the visibility for both vehicles on the road and the cross-ing supervisor
- Slow down to 40km/h or less in designated school zones
- If no speed signs are present, then please drive at a walking pace where pedestrians are walking
- Obey parking restrictions
