How is a school crossing marked in the ACT?

The answer

  • By white lines on the roadway and red and white striped posts on each kerb Correct
  • By a yellow painted box
  • By flashing red lights only
  • By white stripes across the road, like a zebra crossing

Why that's the answer

School crossings are marked by white lines on the roadway and by red and white striped posts on each kerb, which is what distinguishes them from an ordinary striped pedestrian crossing.
