Safe way to school: Frankenthaler plans for your children in view!

In the charming city of Frankenthal, great emphasis is placed on the safety of small citizens. On the occasion of the new school year on August 22, 2025, the city administration set up a comprehensive range of information for secure participation in road traffic for parents, legal guardians and of course the children. Mayor Knöppel, the head of the regulatory, and head of school Mr. Leidig are behind this initiative, which is not only important, but also necessary.

On the heart of the efforts, there is a specially created working group that dealt with the development of school schemes for all Frankenthaler primary schools. The aim is to prepare the students for an independent and, above all, safe way to school. Because one thing is clear: safety in road traffic must be learned from an early age. The way to school provide clear recommendations for safe routes that the children should use on their way to school.

recommendations for safe way to school

Attention is required when crossing streets. This is where the city's guideline comes into play: the recommended school routes are based on safe crossing aids such as traffic lights, pedestrian crossings or underpasses. This does not always mean that the shortest way is also the best. Often it can make sense to accept a small detour to cross the road safely on a crosswalk or at a traffic light.

Another point is the repeated inspection of these routes before school starts. Together with the children, danger spots should be identified and explained so that awareness of risks is sharpened. Regular use of the same route also helps to avoid surprise moments and increase security.

availability of the information

In order for the parents to be well informed, the school plans and further information are available at any time on the homepage of the city of Frankenthal. In this way, everyone involved can prepare for the start of school in good time. If you want to know more, you can look around here: www.frankenthal.de/schulen .
