HAWK Signals Protect Kids at School Crossings | Albuquerque News

Author: The Daily News Now! September 17, 2026 Duration: 1:22

Albuquerque just installed a new HAWK signal at Kathryn and San Mateo—right where kids from Whittier Elementary and Wilson Middle walk to school—making it safer for the Walking School Bus program. When pedestrians press the button, flashing yellow lights alert drivers, followed by a solid red stoplight to let kids cross safely. Mayor Keller’s backing this push for kid-friendly streets, as the city rolls out more HAWK signals with proven success in protecting students. The system smartly clears traffic once everyone’s across, balancing safety and efficiency on busy roads.
