Over the next four years the Cook Government will invest $10 million to expand the 40km/h school zone speed limit to all warden crossings across the state. 

Right now, there are 165 warden crossings that fall outside of the 40km/h school zone - just like the one on Riseley Street in Ardross. 

These wardens crossing form a critical part of the journey to school for so many kids and should be treated the same as a typical 40km/h school zone. 

The $10 million investment will allow us to install the necessary signage around these 165 warden crossings - making the school journey safer for kids, families and our wardens.

The following locations in Bateman will be upgraded: 

✅ Riseley Street - Ardross Primary School

✅ Bombard Street - St Benedicts School

✅ Marmion Street - Booragoon Primary School

✅ Norma Road - Booragoon Primary School

✅ North Lake Road - Kardinya Primary School 

✅ Somerville Boulevard - Winthrop Primary School

✅Winthrop Drive - Winthrop Primary School
