Students from Applecross Senior High School and Ardross Primary School can cross the roads safely now with the installation of new Wig Wag lights on Riseley Street.

This is an important safety addition to this busy road to ensure the safety of school students and pedestrians on this busy road.

Parents have been raising this issue for these lights for nearly a decade and I am so glad to take up the baton after Applecross principal Paul Leech raised it with me and was thrilled the works would be completed so soon.

I was joined by Melville mayor George Gear, parent Ms Webster, her kids and Applecross high principal Paul Leech to see where the lights will go.

I was pleased to be a part of the delivery of this project.
