A new permanent crossing point on Wareham Road outside Lytchett Matravers Primary School is now in place.
The Zebra Crossing will provide a safer, better walking experience for children and parents who are walking and scooting to school.
It is also hoped that by providing a safer crossing point, more children and parents will walk to school and help reduce traffic congestion in the area.
With the Zebra Crossing in place, the current school crossing patrol will no longer be funded by Dorset Council.
Lytchett Matravers Parish Council has opted to sponsor a school crossing patrol on the Zebra Crossing, initially from 1 September 2025 until March 2026.
