There will be ongoing cooperation with the leaders of public and non-public educational institutions, as well as local governments, to define joint tasks and measures to increase the level of public safety in teaching facilities, by defining measures for: Defining the security perimeter in schools of all levels; Limiting or prohibiting parking, standing and movement of vehicles on certain road segments near schools; Placing the relevant vertical and horizontal signage necessary to discipline the movement of vehicles and pedestrians.
"In cooperation with the State Health Inspectorate, the National Institute of Public Health and the local government, work will be done to close or remove commercial premises and mobile sales points that sell alcoholic beverages and expired food products near schools, which often serve as gathering points for citizens with criminal records, users of alcoholic beverages and narcotics, as well as a source of danger for disruption of public order or other violent actions against teaching staff and school students ," emphasized the Director of the Public Order Directorate, Agron Çeli.
Also, the Traffic Police will have an increased presence on road axes, especially near schools located near main roads, both at the beginning and at the end of the learning process. Continuous and rigorous checks will be carried out on drivers of vehicles transporting students, including alcohol tests, technical inspection of vehicles and enforcement of student transportation rules.
Meanwhile, Police specialists in the areas will maintain daily contact with school principals and school security officers, and will be on full alert 24/7, to coordinate actions, with the aim of preventing the penetration of negative phenomena into schools, as well as for immediate intervention to prevent any criminal activity that violates the safety of students.
