Kiss and Drop Zone

Governing Council has been working with the West Torrens Council to improve student pick up in the afternoon.

 

As you would be aware it can become quite chaotic on Grallina Street and Malurus Avenue between 2:55pm and 3:20pm. 

 

For the rest of the term we will be trialling 'Kiss and Drop Zones' on Grallina Street as well as the zone on Malurus Avenue. The new zones are on the school side of Grallina Street each side of the school crossing. Please see the attached pictures of each zone.  

 

We ask that parents use these zones correctly and move forward as cars leave the zone to enable flow. Please see the attached picture for the correct use of a 'Kiss and Drop Zone'.

 

We are also waiting for the council to install new 'Kiss and Drop Zone' signs in each area which will make the zone clearly identifiable. 

 

The council and I will be monitoring the new zones effectiveness and if we see an improvement we will look to make this a permanent change.

 

Also just remember that the speed limit on Malurus Avenue is 25km/hr between Grallina Street and Pierson Street. This is a high traffic area and we all need to take care to ensure the safety of all users.

 

We appreciate everyones understanding and cooperation during the initial stages of the new zones.
