School streets are roads that have restrictions for a short period of time around schools to traffic at pick-up and drop-off times.
A school street resident exemption permit is available to residents that live within a school street zone. It allows the permit holder to enter the zone during the restricted times. Once a permit application has been approved the exemption permit will be valid for 24 months.
This is a virtual permit and will be valid instantly from the date selected. You do not need to display anything in the vehicle.
