The City of Joondalup is thrilled to announce the installation of a new speed radar sign within our school precinct.  This initiative is part of our and the city’s commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and community. The sign will be installed between the two schools on Prendiville Avenue,

The speed radar sign will serve as a constant reminder for drivers to adhere to the speed limits, especially during school peak periods.  By raising awareness of speeding, this will create a safer environment for everyone.  We kindly ask therefore, for your cooperation in observing the speed limits and encouraging others to do the same.

The speed radar sign is the result of the City of Joondalup obtaining grant funding from the Australian Governments Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts to raise awareness of the impacts of speeding through the Joondalup Speed Awareness and Education Campaign.  The signs will be installed in November 2024 for approximately six months.
