CityFibre is working with West Specialist Inclusive Learning Centre (West SILC), which caters for pupils with complex learning difficulties and physical and mental health needs, to teach students in Leeds how to stay safe near roadworks.
With CityFibre’s building nearby it can be hard for pupils to understand the necessity for diversions from their usual routines when travelling to and from the school.
CityFibre has donated copies of the Cones series which teach young children how to stay safe when travelling near roadworks and build partner O’Connor Utilities has also provided a traffic cone for them to decorate so that it resembles one of the main characters in the book.
Kim Johnston, Regional Partnership Director, CityFibre, said: “Some disruption is inevitable for a project of this scale. Bringing the local community on board with us is crucial and we’re so grateful for everyone’s patience and support.”
Alan Truman, Head of Safety, Health & Environment Compliance for CityFibre, added: “It’s really important to CityFibre to ensure our site safety messages are relevant and appropriate for the intended audience.”
