Adapting school zone drop-off and pick-up areas to ensure social distancing

Through a citizen-driven process, the City of Banjarmasin, through Kota Kita and together with TUMI, is implementing a project for a participatory neighborhood street design in Banjarmasin. The project aims to raise public awareness of inclusive planning and build  the capacity for the community to implement a pilot in the city of Banjarmasin. A focus on mobility options for school aged children and persons with disabilities will be aimed at improving their access and ability to participate in public life. This will be accomplished by addressing mobility services at the city level, school zone designs, accessible vehicles and citizen and government awareness. Due to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, adaptations to the school zone drop-off and pick-up areas will be implemented to ensure physical distancing along with hand washing stations. In addition to this, a campaign to educate students and parents on the 'new normal' at the school will be implemented as well as possible temperature checks.
