Hedges Middle School would like to bring to your attention, a change with parking on Fairlane Avenue that will take effect April 3, 2018 from the City of Winnipeg.  There will be new signs put up that will indicate NO stopping or parking on the eastbound side of Fairlane Avenue between Buchanan Blvd and daycare parking.  That means NO stopping for drop offs or pick-ups before, during or after school on that side.  Vehicles will now have a loading zone on the westbound lane between Hedges and Buchanan Blvd.  This will eliminate students being dropped off on the Eastbound lane and running into traffic.  As well, there will be NO stopping before the bus loop as it backs up traffic.  Furthermore, NO vehicles will be permitted to enter the staff lot OR the bus loop.  All of these changes will be in effect between 7:00 A.M. and 5:30 P.M. from September to June, same as speeding zones for schools. 

Our school resource officer, Constable Alana and a Hedges staff will be out as a reminder the first week this is in effect, April 3- 8.  We appreciate all drivers adhering to the new parking and drop off restrictions as it is all about safety as well as staff being able to get in and out of their parking spots without waiting for a space they pay to park in.  Drivers in violation of the new signs may be ticketed.
