Transport NSW reminds motorists school zone 40kph limits are now in place and include school development days, or pupil-free days.

Transport for NSW executive director of transport safety, Chadi Chalhoub, said while the first few days of the term are traditionally school development days for teachers, children may also be returning and that will continue to increase throughout the week.

We expect to see an increase in activity around schools as teachers and students make their way back to the classroom for 2026,” Mr Chalhoub said.

“There are more than 6800 school zone flashing lights in place across New South Wales to let motorists know they are about to enter a school zone,” Mr Chalhoub said.

“It is important motorists follow the rules to ensure every child and teacher gets to school and returns home safely. The best way to do this is by following the speed limit, watching out for children when they are crossing the road, and slowing down and looking out as they get on or off buses.”
