Do you know your school signs?

School bus signs

These signs are displayed on school buses. If a school bus has stopped, you must slow down and drive at 20km/h or less. This applies if:

• the lights are flashing on the school bus sign, or

• the bus has stopped to pick up or drop off school children, even if the lights aren’t flashing.

No matter which way you’re coming from, you must drive under 20km/h until you’re well past the bus.

School speed limits

Active school speed limit signs are turned on before and after school, and at other times there’s activity associated with the school.

The sign on the left indicates the start of the school speed limit. If either 30 or 40 km/h is visible the red ring will flash, indicating the maximum speed past the school until the school speed limit ends.

The sign on the right will be on the side road.

🚗 Stay Vigilant: Children may not always look before stepping into the street, so be extra cautious near bus stops.

⌛️ Be Patient: A few extra seconds can prevent accidents and ensure our students’ safety.  Please do not do any u-turns near the school around 3pm.
