NGOs pilot project for safer school roads


The latest round of ground work saw 30 volunteers installing traffic barriers and painting walking paths outside the school in Setapak.

PUPILS at SK Danau Kota 2 in Setapak, Kuala Lumpur can get to school safer following work by the local authority and mobility advocacy groups to widen walking paths and reduce speeding around the facilities.

Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) collaborated with Global Designing Cities Initiative (GDCI) and it's local liaison Bike Commute Malaysia (local NGO), under the Bloomberg Philanthropies Initiative for Global Road Safety, to consult the school and test new road flow designs in the area.
