Welby's Safe Walking Routes map:
SIDEWALKS ON SKYE DRIVE:
The sidewalks along Skye Drive provide a safe avenue for students to walk to school. Students are asked to avoid any fence climbing or walking in the middle of the road on this thoroughfare. Children must watch for vehicles and move through the areas without sidewalks as quickly as possible.
GULLY PARKWAY:
The gully parkway surrounding Welby has many shrubs and trees that obscure children as they walk to and from school. Children should be cautioned about safe walking practices when using the pathways. Students should walk in groups or with partners.
STOPLIGHT AT 4000 WEST AND SKYE DRIVE:
A stoplight at this intersection replaced the original four-way stop. No adult assistant is available for children needing to travel north or south on 4000 West by crossing Skye Drive. Students need to use the crosswalk at this intersection. They will need to push the button on the sign, and then watch to see that traffic stops before proceeding to cross this street. Students should be cautioned to wait for the green light and check both ways before crossing, especially when riding a bike.
