BCSC Halts Manual Traffic Stop

Batesville Community School Corporation’s Director of Safety Austin Gross says school resource officers will no longer be directing traffic at the intersection of State Road 46 and Huntersville Road. Gross says the recent installation of a new traffic light at the location makes it unsafe for officers to manually direct traffic at the location but will now allow for those SROs to have more time to be present inside the school buildings. The extra time will be spent building relationships with the students and ensuring a safe and secure school environment.
