WHAT IS A SCHOOL STREET?
A School Street is a road outside a school with a timed restriction on motorised traffic at school drop-off and pick-up times. The restriction applies to school traffic and through traffic. The outcome is a safer, healthier, and more pleasant environment that nurtures a reduction in car trips and increased levels of walking, wheeling, and cycling.
Our School Street restricts movement of traffic alnog the road outside our school betweeen the hours of 8am and 9am, and 2.30 and 3.30pm. It was made permanent from September 2024 after a successfuil trial period.
