Abstract

The School Zone Safety Act was passed by the 1996 Washington Legislature and directed the Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC) to develop and implement programs to improve safety in school zones. In response to the School Zone Safety Act, the WTSC initiated a study to measure vehicle speeds in school zones. The effect of different types of school zone speed limit signs and the effect of different speed limits on the roads approaching the schools are discussed.
