School Patrol Signs On-site Storage Trial

Pursuant to subclause 3.4(1) of Land Transport Rule: Traffic Control Devices 2004 (the Rule) and a delegation from the NZ Transport Agency, I, Glenn Bunting, Network Manager, authorise the installation and maintenance of on-site storage devices for school patrol stop signs:

  1. for the purpose described in Schedule 1;
  2. in the form and layout, set out in Schedule 2;
  3. at the locations stated in Schedule 3;
  4. for the period specified in Schedule 4; and
  5. subject to an evaluation in accordance with Schedule 5.

The on-site storage devices may be installed for the purpose of evaluating their use and the trial will be called the "School patrol signs on-site storage trial".

Schedule 1—Purpose of trial

The purpose of the trial is to:

  1. evaluate the effectiveness and safety of installing storage devices for school patrol stop signs on the white poles at school crossing points (kea crossings) as an alternative to complying with clause 8.4(7) of the Rule; and
  2. identify the costs and benefits of storing the school patrol stop signs on-site, in the storage devices when the school patrol is not operating.

Schedule 2—Form and layout of storage devices

  1. The storage devices must be designed to enclose the circular panel of a school patrol stop sign so that it is not readily visible when folded into the storage device.
  2. The storage devices may also be used to store the fluorescent “Children” flag signs, provided they are not readily visible when stored.
  3. The colour of the storage devices and all fittings must be white or grey, except as permitted in Schedule 2(g).
  4. A storage device may be mounted on the white pole used to hinge the school patrol stop sign at a school crossing point.
  5. The handle of the school patrol stop sign must be white, or the storage device must shield the handle so that no black and white bands are visible when the school patrol sign is folded into the storage device.
  6. The storage devices must be oriented to present the smallest possible dimensions to vehicular traffic approaching the school crossing point.
  7. The surfaces of the storage device facing the footpath or the roadway may display a road safety message for pedestrians, provided that message is not readily visible or distracting to vehicular traffic approaching the school crossing point.
