Apply for a school safety zone permit

Day permits for residents

A school safety zone day pass permit allows a vehicle to access a school street to visit your home during the restricted hours.

To be eligible for this permit you must live on a street affected by a school safety zone.

These permits are limited to 4 per household per year, so you should only use them for emergencies when you can only access a service during the restricted hours.

It can only be used for taxis, medical reasons, tradespeople, or grocery deliveries.

This is an e-permit, so it is valid immediately and you don't need to display anything in the vehicle window.

The permit is valid for one day only. You can get one up to 30 days in advance.
