Location of IDEA Walzem campus on busy street causes concern for student safety, parent says [Video]

SAN ANTONIO – A school on a major road on the Northeast Side of San Antonio is giving parents cause for concern about safety while dropping off and picking up their children.

As students walk to the IDEA Walzem campus, cars zoom by on Walzem Road, where the speed limit is 45 miles per hour.

Ottinger fears the amount of traffic, the high rate of speed, the lack of lighting, and the lanes, paired with the added congestion of dropping off and picking up children, could result in an accident.

“On top of all the traffic, you’ve seen kids cross three or four lanes just to get to the school?” asked KSAT Reporter John Paul Barajas.
