As families prepare for the new school year, streets around schools become busier with increased traffic and activity. Planning ahead helps create safer, calmer school zones for everyone.
Parking rules near schools focus on keeping sightlines clear, traffic flowing, and children visible. Stopping too close to crosswalks or corners, double-parking, or blocking bus zones can create confusion and safety risks during peak times.
Parking legally—even if it means walking a short distance—helps reduce congestion and improves safety for students and families returning to daily routines.
A few extra minutes and thoughtful parking choices make a big difference as the school year begins. Learn more at calgaryparking.com/safeschools.
