Mangaluru city south MLA D Vedavyas Kamath is all going to rescue a nine-month-old idea to set up school zones in the city.
Initial timeline for implementation, when he ,told the idea in January, was May, the Covid pandemic pushed back the same to May 2021. The idea is borne from the fact that a lot of educational institutions dot major road junctions in the city and often end up as traffic choke points.
The MLA told, is to make a motorist aware of presence of a school at least 50-100m in advance.
This involves children who are oblivious to dangers that lurk on the road. Motorists tend to overlook the fact they are operating in the vicinity of educational institutions, and need to maintain certain decorum, he said.
“I have approached corporates to fund the project which may cost around Rs 50 lakh under their corporate social responsibility initiative,” he said, adding that the response he has received has been positive.
“There is uncertainty about schools starting. So we will try to execute and complete this project by May 2021, before the next academic year starts,” he shared on his Facebook page.
M A Nataraj, assistant commissioner of police (traffic) said that the idea was not discussed at the recent coordination committee meeting involving the MCC, Mangaluru City Traffic Police (MCTP) and other stakeholders. “MCTP is committed to the safety of students at all costs, and will coordinate with the MLA in implementing the same,” he noted.
