School Road in the Lopeng Tengah Should Have “Speed Bump”

1974

Lopeng Middle School or the short name of SMK Lopeng Tengah, is a national secondary school located on Jalan Riam. Since the opening of new Riam roads through Kpg Lopeng Tengah road many vehicles using the road for a shortcut leading to the Pujut Padang Kerbau and Miri General Hospital.

Because of road become carriageway who commute daily across the school, the safety of school students also threatened if there are drivers who do not heed the warning signs in the area. To prevent vehicles from speeding, we recommend that the authorities able to build a “Speed Bump” in the school area so that the vehicle can reduce speed when crossing the road.

Road of SMK Lopeng Tengah School AreaNext to the school is also a Surau At-Taqwa Kpg Lopeng Tengah, where many villagers perform prayers there. Because the area becomes congested, especially peak hours, the safety of students and the villagers should be aware by the authorities so as to avoid any untoward incident occur like the road accidents happens on the road of Syed Othman Nasional School Miri recently. Sometimes we see students who ran to the vehicle that waiting for them without looking left and right. Until now Syed Othman National School Miri road has no “Speed Bump”.

We hope the authorities immediately address the problem from persists for the safety of students and the villagers of Lopeng Tengah by build a “Speed Bump” in the school and their prayer house area. Cooperation with the authorities to resolve the issue immediately is very much appreciated.
