Safer travel

School gate parking

School gate parking still is one of the biggest road safety concerns amongst our communities.

Most schools have advisory markings to encourage drivers to leave a safety area around school entrances and exits, but on most school days parents and carers ignore these, putting young lives at risk.

To encourage parents / carers to park away from schools, we have advisory leaflets to hand out, and display boards that can be tied to school railings advising of the danger. We also have banners available to borrow.
