Pencil bollards, which have been installed at Scoil Bhride in Kilcullen, are designed to alert drivers that they are in a school zone, writes Brian Byrne. They have also been installed at Scoil Bhride in Athgarvan, by Kildare County Council.

They are made from impact-resistant polyurethane and come in four colours in a pencil design to emphasise the school location.

The providers say they are a powerful visual cue that helps prevent accidents and discourages illegal parking, safeguarding student pathways.

Cllr Tracey O'Dwyer has welcomed the installations, just in time for the return to school, as "another job off the list."
