  29. Question 13 – The traffic flow around the school is highly undesirable. If possible, please propose an alternative solution to our current traffic flow during the morning and afternoon drop-off and pick-up periods. • Implement a drive-through on Campground Rd (existing infrastructure) for those of us who just wish to drop and go and not park. • Encourage more people to park on the empty piece of ground near Bishops and walk across the road to collect their kids. • Start / finish grades at different times • Approach council to convert Campground into Rouwkoop a one-way towards the mountain. • Organise lift clubs • Allocate grades to different drop off areas away from campus and possibly stagger drop off times • Parking for FP parents in school grounds • Open lane in front of school that has been blocked off • Create drive through at Grade 7 playground by putting a gate at off ramp near hall side, strictly stop and go, no parking before 8am and after 2:15 for half and hour. • RBPS “Jamie Shuttle” bus for Bosch area. • Suburb based lift schemes, common pickup point in morning • Campground and Sandown: If robot can be set to have the green man for longer (at the moment about 15 seconds) and possibly a traffic person at the crossing, it would be safer and parents who walk to their children’s classes, especially FP, could be encouraged to park here • School bus system • Overhead pedestrian bridge • Rouwkoop Road drop and go in mornings • School parking area should be open • Rouwkoop one way during peak times • Older children should walk away from school and be collected up or down the road • Traffic officials to issue fines • Make 2-way stop at Glebe Road a 4-way stop
