The front of Namık Kemal Primary School was turned into a colorful and safe pedestrian path.

The 'Colorful Road Application' in front of schools, which was initiated by Konak Municipality to ensure pedestrian safety of students, was carried out this time at Namık Kemal Primary School. The street of the school, located on Çankaya District 142 Street, was excavated and asphalted from scratch by the teams of the Municipality's Directorate of Technical Affairs. In addition to the installation of railings, benches were placed in front of the school, which was colorfully painted and decorated with patterns and geometric shapes, for parents waiting for their children. Planting work was also carried out in the green area at the entrance of the street, contributing to the green texture of the region. As a result of the work, which was appreciated by all neighborhood residents, especially students and parents, the street was closed to vehicle traffic and students had a colorful and safe school road.

“OUR NEIGHBORHOOD HAS BEEN COLORIZED”

Sevda Çini, one of the residents of the neighborhood, thanked Konak Mayor Nilüfer Çınarlı Mutlu for the exemplary practice that was previously implemented in different neighborhoods and said, "Our neighborhood became more colorful and it was very good for the children. Moreover, the work was completed in a very short time. The children liked it very much, it was an energetic environment."

“IT WAS VERY GOOD FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN”

Gizem Üstündağ, one of the students' parents, said that she was very happy when she saw the work completed in a short time and ready for the first day of school, and said, "We were very happy that the road was closed to vehicle traffic for the safety of our children. We were very happy when we saw them walking to school in the morning. We thank Konak Municipality for the importance given to education."

Merve Özkan, another student's parent, said: "Children will now go to and from school very safely. For this reason, we are very peaceful. Closing the road to traffic, installing the railings and road work have been great. We thank our president and all the workers."
