Help Parsloes Primary School pupils get to school safely
Parsloes Primary is located on a busy rat-run, due to its location between Ivyhouse, Meadow and Spurling Roads, which tend to experience heavier traffic as people attempt to avoid Parsloes Avenue.
To reduce the danger from traffic and improve congestion and air quality around the school gates, we are proposing that Spurling Road, between Parsloes Avenue and Ivyhouse Road, and Shortcrofts Road, between Meadow Road and Ayloffe Road, become School Streets from May 2022.
This will create a pedestrian and cycle-only area in front of the school gate between the hours of 8am - 9:15am, and 2.45pm - 4pm, during term time. This will alleviate congestion and parking problems for residents and create a safer environment for children and parents to travel to school.
Emergency vehicles will be exempt. Residents and businesses within the school street zone, carers and blue badge holders who require access to the school street, as well as school staff, can apply for an exemption free of charge. Residents’ parking will be unaffected.
