Parking Yellow Zig-Zags
We kindly ask parents not to park on the yellow
zigzag lines outside of the School.
Yellow zig zag lines can also be found at the
entrance or exits of hospitals, fire stations, police
stations or ambulance stations and are used to
indicate the length of road where you should not
wait, stop or park a vehicle.
Yellow and white zig zag road markings are placed
to show that the area must be kept clear to allow
an unrestricted view for approaching drivers and
riders or children wanting to cross the road.
Please keep them clear at all times for
the safety of our children.
