Safety, a priority for all

2 Busy road: Traffic at Dataran Bandar Utama can be chaotic during the afternoon peak hour, as vehicles come and go to pick the school students up. The same road is also used by vehicles going to 1 Utama Shopping Centre’s outdoor parking, as well as trucks and buses heading to the mall’s loading bay and bus terminal.

Heavy traffic, selfish driving and irresponsible parking habits are perennial problems facing most schools. All stakeholders need to get involved to solve these problems as learning to use the road is an important life lesson. StarEducate visited two schools in Petaling Jaya to see how this long-standing issue is being tackled.
