Legislative Council Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time School Traffic Zones School Traffic Zones The Hon. H.M. GIROLAMO Legislative Council School Traffic Zones The Hon. H.M. GIROLAMO (Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:50): My questions are to the new Minister for Infrastructure and Transport regarding school traffic zones: 1.	Why are the new 40 km/h school zones only being introduced at three schools next month, being Marryatville High School, Goodwood Primary and St Thomas Primary School, when the government claims 150 schools have been identified as needing safety improvements? 2.	How does the government justify the potential confusion facing motorists regarding the three different school speed limits that will be faced across the state, including 25 km/h, 40 km/h and 60 km/h depending on the school and the time of day? 3.	What infrastructure will be put in place at each of these sites? The Hon. E.S. BOURKE Legislative Council Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Autism Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services School Traffic Zones The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Autism) (14:50): I thank the honourable member for her question. This actually falls under the Minister for Road Safety, but I am happy to also provide you some updates on what this would look like. The 40 km/h zone will actually bring us in line with every other state. Most other states already have this in place and this will enable us to be in line with them, having 40 km/h zones. As I am advised, that would make us consistent with other states. As you have rightfully highlighted, we will be starting with a number of schools, particularly the Goodwood Primary School and St Thomas School as I have been advised, and also the Marryatville High School. As you have also rightfully highlighted, this will be done in a rolling stage of works. There will be an additional 25 on top of the three that I have just mentioned. Then we will be growing to the 150 target that I have been advised we are seeking to achieve. The 25, I have been advised, will be happening by the end of December 2025 and the first two locations, which takes in three schools in total, will be early November.
