Officials from the John Glenn School Corporation will be reviewing traffic flow specifically during dismissal times at all three Walkerton schools.
Superintendent Richard Reese told the John Glenn School Board Tuesday night that parents waiting to pick up their children from school are often causing a traffic flow issue as cars line the streets. The pattern often affects the way the buses enter and exit the schools as they transport students home from school.
Reese noted that the Walkerton Town Council discussed the issue Monday night during their regular meeting citing safety concerns.
Reese, along with the transportation director, a Walkerton Town Council member and an officer from the Walkerton Police Department will be out today redesigning the traffic flow to accommodate all who are transporting children from the schools. An update will be given at the school board’s next meeting in April.
