Make Omega School Road Safe for Our Children
The Issue
“No parent should have to worry whether their child will safely reach school because of preventable traffic risks.”
Make Omega School Road Safe for Our Children
Every school day, hundreds of children travel along Omega School Road, Kolapakkam, by bicycle, school transport, two-wheeler, and on foot.
For many parents, the journey to school has become a source of growing concern. Heavy vehicles, speeding traffic, unsafe overtaking, and congestion during school hours create unnecessary risks for children using this road.
The photographs attached to this petition show heavy vehicles operating on roads shared by school-going children during peak commuting hours. Parents and residents have repeatedly observed situations where children, cyclists, pedestrians, school vans, cars, autos, and large commercial vehicles are forced to navigate the same narrow stretches of road.
We should not wait for a serious accident before action is taken.
We respectfully request the relevant authorities to implement:
• Restriction of heavy vehicles during school arrival and dispersal timings
• Strict enforcement of speed limits in the school zone
• Traffic monitoring during peak school hours
• Clearly marked pedestrian crossings and school-zone signage
• Speed-calming measures to reduce overspeeding
• Improved infrastructure for children walking and cycling to school
This petition is not against businesses, transport operators, or any individual road user. It is a collective appeal to make Omega School Road safer for children, families, residents, and all commuters.
Every child deserves a safe journey to school and a safe return home.
Please support this petition and help create a safer Omega School Road for our children.
