BACK TO SCHOOL – SLOW DOWN AND STAY ALERT

With students heading back to school, more children will be walking, biking, and crossing streets throughout Fort Macleod.

Please slow down and stay alert, especially around schools, playgrounds, residential areas, and crosswalks.

Drivers are also reminded to:

• Watch carefully for children at crosswalks
• Keep yellow curbs clear
• Avoid parking near intersections and crosswalks where vehicles can block sightlines
• Watch for school buses, bicycles and scooters
• Give yourself a little extra time and be patient during school drop-off and pick-up

Clear sightlines matter. A vehicle parked too close to an intersection or crosswalk can make it difficult for both drivers and children to see each other.

✅ Ensure children are wearing a properly fitted helmet during every ride.
✅ Review safe routes & crossings before the school year begins.
✅ Remind children to stay alert & watch for vehicles at intersections and driveways.
✅ Secure bikes and scooters with a sturdy lock attached through the frame & wheel.
✅ Before the first day of class, parents can inspect their equipment, discuss safe riding & ride the route together.
