Attention Parents and Guardians:
The Abington Township Police Department and the Traffic Safety Unit are committed to keeping pedestrians safe. With the new school year already upon us, we are requesting your help. Below we have provided you with helpful guidelines for dropping off and picking up your children and information regarding special traffic enforcement details happening the first few weeks of school.
While picking up or dropping off your child from school, please follow these guidelines:
Park ONLY in non-restricted areas
Do NOT park in the posted “NO PARKING AREAS”
Do NOT double-park
Do NOT stop in areas of the street that block the flow of traffic around your child’s school.
Do NOT block the driveways of area residents
Your cooperation will help promote the safety of all!
In addition, our Traffic Safety Unit will be conducting EXTRA ENFORCEMENT DETAILS in all area school zones during the first few weeks. We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that the speed limit in all school zones while the lights are flashing is 15 MPH.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation. We look forward to another great school year for you and your children.
Respectfully,
Officer Christian Posey
Abington Twp Police Dept
