Write a news report on traffic jam near our school
Answers
Answer:
With several schools in the city located in areas having high density traffic, the congestion in these areas during the morning and especially afternoon hours poses to be a threat to the students, teachers, parents and residents alike.
Hampering the flow of vehicles on the busy roads, the unmanned traffic not only results in jams but is also a huge risk to the school children crossing the road. With the lack of zebra crossings and sign boards saying ‘School Ahead’, the need of the hour is to ease traffic congestion during opening and closing hours.
Dealing with this problem, DAV Bariatu has come up with separate routes for buses and pedestrians and the school deploys its guards to manage traffic in the afternoons, when the school closes.
“It is difficult for the children who have to cross the road. The school administration has requested for the deployment of traffic personnel at the crossing and for some time the problem had eased, but it still persists. A zebra crossing should be made and the traffic stopped especially when children cross the road,” said Principal BK Singh.
Singh also feels that the public needs to be aware about the traffic rules and regulations. “The district administration should provide barricades around schools. Steps to create public awareness also need to be taken and the drivers of two wheelers, four wheelers, auto rickshaws also need to be have some civic sense,” he added.
Ram Singh, Principal of Delhi Public School (DPS) and President of CBSE Sahodaya School Complex, is of the opinion that citizens are also equally responsible.
“Schools are not just looking towards the administration to solve the traffic problem but to the public at large. It is the duty of each citizen to give priority to the children crossing the road. When it can be followed in various others countries, why can’t we also do it and this should be instilled in everyone on the roads,” he said.
The DPS Principal also feels that several schools located in the same locality should have the dispersal time at the duration of 10 minutes from each other to ease the traffic jams.
“The administration should have proper signage put around all the schools warning the drivers and a speed limit should also be fixed to prevent any mishaps. Heavy vehicles should not be allowed on roads leading to the school. During the dispersal time, traffic personnel should be deployed to ensure smooth flow of vehicles,” said Ajay Roy, President of All Schools Parents’ Association.
Rai said that the district administration can take various steps to overcome the problem of any traffic snarls around schools. “The schools which have their gates facing the road should have signages and marking in front of them. Traffic cones should be put around schools for crossing the road. There should be signages at the driver’s eye level warning ‘School Ahead’ and fluorescent strips should also be installed,” he said

Explanation:
On the morning of 7 January, 2019, there was a huge traffic snarl in front of our school. As usual, the drop offs of students by parents and guardians, as well as from the school bus was there when suddenly a big bus, a tourist bus arrived. The bus wasn't carrying any passengers though, and with the rush in dropping the students, the bus added another issue just in front of the main gate.
Then, as if to make things worse, the bus had a breakdown. It just wouldn't start, leaving everyone flabbergasted. It blocked the traffic from both ways, leaving fuming parents as well as other riders on the verge of breakdown. Even the students on the school bus had to walk all the way to the gate to make it on time for the morning assembly. Such was the traffic nightmare in front of our school.
