THE PRE-CONSULTATION IS NOW CLOSED. WE WILL CONSIDER THE FEEDBACK BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO PROGRESS TO A TRIAL AND FORMAL CONSULTATION IN THE AUTUMN.
What is a School Street?
A School Street is where the road outside a school is closed to motor vehicles for a short period (45-60 minutes) at the beginning and end of the school day. Parents and carers are asked to either walk, scoot or cycle with their children to school, or to park a little further away and walk the last few minutes of the journey. Older children are encouraged to travel independently wherever possible.
School Streets have been very effective elsewhere, by:
Reducing road danger at the place where the most children and their families are likely to congregate;
Improving the air quality outside the school, protecting young lungs;
Encouraging physical activity into the children’s routine, which makes them healthier, happier, more energised and ready to learn.
How will it work?
Part of Hadow Road will be closed via a timed Traffic Order, displayed on signs at the entrance to the road. During the closure periods, stewards will be present to help enforce this, and to welcome families arriving at the School Street on foot, scooter or bicycle. Blue Badge holders and residents will be allowed through in their cars if required.
The map below shows the location of the school street and route information.
The pre-consultation survey closes at 12 noon on Monday 5 August 2024
Following this, we plan to implement a trial School Streets scheme later in the year. During the trial there will be a six-month formal consultation period, where parents and residents can tell us how they feel about the scheme once they have had a chance to experience it. We will then evaluate the success of the trial before making a decision about whether or not to make the scheme permanent.
