Havering Council has initiated a consultation to gather feedback on three trial school street zones around local primary schools. These zones restrict traffic during school drop-off and pick-up times to allow only pedestrian access, with exceptions for residents and emergency vehicles. The trial, running for 18 months, aims to reduce road danger, pollution from idling vehicles, and even anti-social behavior from inconsiderate parking. The consultation seeks views until February 23, as the trial period ends on April 29, with existing 13 school street zones in place and new zones proposed.
The trial schemes at Mead Primary School and others aim to enhance safety and reduce pollution, allowing only pedestrians access during school drop-off and pick-up times.
Havering Council's commitment to safer roads includes 13 existing school street zones and proposals for new trials, emphasizing improved health, reduced air pollution, and active travel.
The council believes the school street schemes will curb road dangers and lessen irresponsible parking, contributing to a safer and cleaner environment for the community.
Consultations are open until February 23, gathering feedback on the impact of the trial schemes and underscoring the council's focus on community health and wellbeing.
