As part of the Government’s Active Travel Fund (ATF) initiative, the County Council developed signage only School Streets trials. School Streets seek to provide a safer and more attractive environment to the roads outside of schools that nurtures walking, wheeling, and cycling for the journey to and from school.
In July 2023, the Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport approved the implementation of three Experimental Traffic Regulation Orders for three schools - Arundel Church of England Primary School, Thomas A Becket Junior School, and Swiss Gardens Primary School.
This report explains how the trial School Streets schemes operate. The trial was monitored for a period of 6 months that ended on 31 March 2024. An end of project report is planned for publication in due course.
The Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport has authorised the Director of Law and Assurance to make the Experimental Traffic Regulation Orders (ETRO) for the three School Street Trial sites permanent, as set out in section 2 of the report.
