As winter mornings grow darker, the Abbotsford School District is asking residents and businesses to turn on their existing outdoor lights between 7 and 9 a.m.
The Brighten the Path to School campaign launched November 8. Its aim is to make neighbourhood routes more visible while children and families travel to school before daylight.
The request is simple and community-wide; no new equipment is required. Normal road-safety precautions remain important, particularly during fog and rain.
