School Drop-Off & Pick-Up – Let’s Keep It Safe School areas are especially busy during drop-off and pick-up times, and that means extra care is needed to keep children, parents, and other road users safe.
Please remember: • Yellow zigzag lines marked ‘School Keep Clear’ mean no stopping, waiting, or parking during restricted times. • These markings are there to ensure clear visibility and safe crossing for children. • Avoid parking opposite zigzags or blocking driveways – it creates hazards and inconveniences for others. • Fines apply if you park where you shouldn’t. These can be issued by the council or police, depending on your area. • Fines are often higher near schools but can be reduced if paid within 14 days.
Top tips: • Give yourself extra time – school areas are busy! • Park further away if needed but always be considerate of residents. • Check for signs showing when restrictions apply.
Let’s all do our part to protect our communities and keep school zones safe for everyone. |
