Summary

Frankland Public School is located on Logan Avenue, immediately south of Danforth Avenue, both of which are busy roads. On Logan Avenue, between Garnock Avenue and Danforth Avenue, directly adjacent to the school, there is an existing marked crosswalk that is extremely faded and requires refreshing.

I am writing today to seek your support in improving the school safety zone measures around Frankland School.
