Cost Savings
Typically, school crossing guards are only provided at pedestrian crossovers or signalized pedestrian crossings in special circumstances. The existing school crossing is staffed by two guards for one hour per day (30 minutes in the morning, 30 minutes in the afternoon). Elimination of the school crossing will result in an annual savings in wages and fringe benefits. The amount of savings from the Crossing Guard Operating Budget item will be $6,250 per year at current rates.
These savings will be reduced to $3,125 per year if the crossing is staffed with a single guard after a pedestrian crossover or pedestrian signal is installed.
