ROUTE 31 AND REGIONAL ROAD TRAFFIC PATTERNS
During the school year, more than 2,000 people attempt to enter the facility between 7:00 a.m. and 7:45 a.m. This traffic includes senior drivers, staff members, school buses, and parents or guardians accompanying their children. It is vitally important that all vehicles yield to pedestrians and school buses while on campus. The speed limit on campus is 5 miles per hour. Please see the following information on how to enter the campus:
Route 31: If you enter from Route 31, make a right and proceed to the Administrative Lot at the north side of the building, traveling to the end, then turn left toward the front of the building, and then make a right toward the Route 31 Entrance. Proceed to the furthest drop-off location. For safety reasons, students may only exit the vehicle when the passenger door is facing the building. An employee will be directing traffic in front of the building. The Clinton Township Police will also be assisting. All cars must exit onto Route 31 South.
Regional Road: Cars using the Regional Road entrance must drop off students in the circle by the Theater/Gym entrance (there will be no drop-offs in the district office parking lot). Please be courteous to the buses dropping off students as well. Drivers will continue around the circle and exit back onto Regional Road. The Regional Road entrance/exit can only be used in the morning for drop-off. Yield to pedestrians in crosswalks as they have the right of way.
Traffic Pattern:
Parents/guardians should drop off students before 7:20 a.m. and pick them up after 2:45 p.m. whenever possible. This can eliminate the bottlenecks created on Route 31 and Regional Road, allowing for a more uniform and safer environment for students, staff members, school buses, and parents or guardians. Your support in maintaining a safe environment is greatly appreciated.
