GETTING TO SCHOOL

SCHOOL TRAFFIC AND PARKING BOTTLENECKS

With increasing student numbers, parking difficulties and traffic jams around Melville Senior High School are worsening. What can be done to ease the congestion?

Parents who drop off:

  • If you drive along Leach Hwy, consider dropping students south in Winnacott St at the overpass. Students must use the footbridge and you can avoid the traffic in Potts St.
  • If you drive via Marmion St, make the drop off a few blocks from the school to avoid traffic just outside the school.
  • The staff car park CANNOT be entered to drop students at school.
  • Encourage walking, cycling or taking a bus.

See the map showing the above drop off points below.

BUSES

Many students use our good public transport system to get to school, so why not drop your child at one of the bus stops? Most of the buses drop the students outside the school or at the overpass so they don’t have to cross any roads.
