‘CEAT Cares’ presents road safety equipment to 30 more schools

Thirty schools in Sri Lanka have received equipment for traffic and pedestrian management from CEAT Kelani Holdings, as the country’s leading tyre manufacturer concluded the 15th year of its road safety programme for school children.
Each of these beneficiary schools received five signboards, 10 traffic cones and 10 traffic warden jackets for the use of students deployed in road safety duties outside their gates under this initiative, which is part of the ‘CEAT Cares’ series of community projects.

The signboards developed for the programme bear legends such as ‘No Parking,’ ‘No Entry,’ ‘Drive Slow,’ ‘Children Crossing Ahead’ and ‘No U turn.’
With the completion of the presentation of equipment to the schools identified for 2024, the total number of schools benefitted by the programme to date rose to 320. The company said another 30 schools would receive road safety related equipment in 2025 under this programme.
“Safety is a subject that CEAT is passionate about, because it is a core consideration with every single tyre we manufacture,” CEAT Kelani Chief Operating Officer Shamal Gunawardene commented.
