Benefits of installing playground road markings

Playground road markings are highly sought-after, with many of the schools we work with requesting them to be included as part of their new playground redesign. To help you decide whether to include road markings into your playground design, we have rounded up some of the main benefits…

  1. Teach basic road safety from a young age

Having road tracks and recognisable road markings in place as playground road markings will help your pupils to learn the rules of the road from a young age. Including graphics such as traffic lights, zebra crossings and ‘stop look and listen’ signs will teach children how to interact with the road in a safe way.

  1. Teach cycling and scooter safety

Teaching pupils’ safety when using their bikes and scooters can be made easy by having playground road markings installed. Taking part in schemes such as Bikeability can be made easier with simple road markings to guide pupils and allow them to learn basic cycling safety when on the roads.

  1. Integrate playground road markings into your lesson plan

Many of the schools we have worked with now integrate their playground markings into their lesson plan. Promoting learning in different environments and helping pupils to learn in a more interactive way, all our playground markings can be used to support education and lesson ideas.

  1. Create a diverse playground by pairing road markings with bespoke playground markings

Alongside road markings, we also recommend installing a variety of different playground markings including mile tracks, traditional playground games and bespoke themed markings. At UniPlay we provide a huge range of playground marking designs all of which have different benefits for your pupils. You can browse our playground markings via our website.
