- The City of Chandler has designated the median as the left turn lane from Chandler Boulevard to the front parking lot entrance. Vehicles that are going to turn left into the front lot need to be in this lane.
- There is no longer a southbound left turn lane at the three-way intersection of Emmett Drive and Oakland Street. There is one southbound lane from which vehicles will proceed south on Emmett Drive or turn left onto Oakland Street.
- There is always a much longer line of vehicles waiting to turn into the front parking lot from the northbound traffic coming from Chandler Boulevard when compared to the westbound vehicles on Oakland that are turning right onto Emmett to get into the left turn lane. We ask that the Oakland vehicles take their turns to turn right and not push ahead of the northbound vehicles to get in the queue sooner.
- Please do not block the crosswalk at Emmett where our children are crossing to get ahead of another vehicle. Safety of our students is our highest priority.
- We ask that you do not turn left into the parking lot from the northbound lane that is now strictly a thoroughfare for vehicles driving north through the neighborhood.
- If you want to park your vehicle in the front parking lot to pick up your child or enter the school building, you need to arrive before the line forms in the left turn lane, or wait to turn left into the lot from the left turn lane.
Thank you for your help in making the traffic flow work for the benefit of everyone, most especially our students and adult pedestrians. Your patience and thoughtfulness is so greatly appreciated by the entire CTA-Liberty community.
Please do not talk on your cell phones while waiting in the carpool line or driving through the parking lots.
