We love our school crossing guards! Amazing people who work every day in all weather conditions to keep our children safe.
Due to the impacts of Covid-19, the Town is experiencing a staffing shortage that may leave some school crossing guard locations unattended. To ensure the safety of our students we will make all efforts to minimize this disruption of service at our locations. In the event that a location cannot be covered, Town staff will notify the affected school(s) as soon as possible and request that they advise the families immediately.
The Town of Halton Hills Crossing Guard program is the responsibility of the Town's Transportation and Public Works department. Crossing guards help to escort pedestrians across a roadway safely at designated school crossing locations in accordance with the Ontario Highway Traffic Act, the Occupational Health and Safety Act, and through the Town of Halton Hills guidelines.
The program assists children from the Halton Catholic District School Board, the Halton District School Board and the Conseil scolaire de district catholique Centre-Sud at twenty-three locations in Halton Hills.
Starting January 1, 2016, drivers and cyclists must stop and yield the whole roadway at school crossings where there is a crossing guard displaying a school crossing stop sign. For more information, visit the Ministry of Transportation website.
