School Zone Santa .Com

Peter Olsen is beavering away installing his "check speed" flashing lights at school zones.

Big deal.... all you do is put a post in the ground, pour in a bit of quick set concrete, add the lights and presto.

If only it was that simple.

What about the hours needed to select sites and then persuade homeowners to allow the light/sign units in their front yard.

Every driver passing through the schoolzone with Peter's lights would appreciate the fact that are there, but how many of these drivers would allow them in their front yard.

HOW EASY WOULD IT BE IF THERE WAS COMMON SENSE, AND THE SAME LIGHTS COULD BE PUT ON THE RTA SCHOOLZONE SIGNS.

DENISTONE EAST PUBLIC SCHOOL GETS SCHOOL ZONE FLASHING LIGHTS

School zone lights campaigner Peter Olsen today announced that school zone flashing lights have been installed at Denistone East Public School.

I recently announced that Ryde Council had approved the installation of privately funded flashing lights. The first set of lights has now gone live, at Denistone East Public School.

The P&C had contacted the local member, Victor Dominello, about the possibility of having flashing lights installed on Lovell Rd. Mr Dominello in turn contacted me and arrangements were made to install the lights. Installation commenced as soon as Council approval was received.

Home owners in the vicinity of other schools in the area have been canvassed in relation to hosting signs on their properties. It is anticipated that the installation of lights at several of those schools will commence shortly.

For more information contact Peter Olsen, 0414-538-404.

No doubt the thought in RTA headquarters is that Peter will eventually give up.

I don't think so.

Someone who spent countless hours on his Christmas light show (google Lurgano xmas lights ) is not one to give up go away.
