Glen Eira College Council recently received formal notification from the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, the Hon Luke Donnellan MP, that the Booran Road pedestrian crossing safety will be upgraded in 2018. VicRoads will install four new electronic speed signs on Booran Road in Caulfield East outside the College. Minister Donnellan wrote "The signs will display 40km/h during the extended hours of 8am-5pm, school days, and are expected to improve safety of students crossing Booran Road throughout the day". VicRoads expects to commence the work early this year with completion by June 2018. On behalf of the College community, I would like to thank you all for your support on this crucial safety issue. It was wonderful to have the support of the community with 415 signatures on this petition. This demonstrates to students that if a community pulls together on a strong cause, we can effect positive change. I would like to thank Minister Donnellan and VicRoads for making these changes to improve the safety of the Booran Road pedestrian crossing for our children. Let's hope there are no accidents in the meantime and we look forward to a safer school crossing in 2018. Thank you Ruth Gordon Glen Eira College Council President
