2.2 School Arrival and Dismissal Procedures 2.3 Existing Roadway Conditions Each school in Forest Park School District 91 is equipped with crossing guards, a designated school bus drop-off area, and a vehicle drop-off area. Since no District 91 school has a parking lot, conflicts between vehicles and walkers are not an issue on school grounds. However, traffic congestion at intersections surrounding schools creates complications and safety issues. Forest Park schools are challenged by a lack of space for vehicle drop-off, which can be viewed as an opoprtunity to encourage more walking and biking trips to school. The consultants inventoried existing traffic signals, crosswalks, and signage in the Village of Forest Park. The existing engineering conditions are detailed in the Existing Conditions map on the following page. Traffic re-routing helps ease congestion in Forest Park. 14 Forest PARK School Travel Plan
