Have your say on scheme to improve road safety at Redlands Primary School

You may remember that a little while ago Green campaigner Kizzi Murtagh petitioned the council to improve road safety around Redlands Primary School. Also the school has been working with the council on this issue. The scheme is now being consulted on.

The plan can be found here (page 2): http://www.reading-travelinfo.co.uk/media/106143/redlands-ward.pdf

The scheme adds double yellow lines to the junction of Lydford Road and Blenheim Gardens to improve visibility and road safety and puts single yellow lines on to Lydford Road which should stop daytime and weekday parking, keeping the road clear.

Please get back to us if you have any thoughts on the scheme.

If you would like to comment on the proposals, objections and comments in favour can be sent by e-mail to highway.objections@reading.gov.uk, quoting ref: I2621 by no later than 10 September 2015. If you require any further information please contact Jim Chen on 0118 9372198 or Andrew Sturgeon on 0118 9372101.

Depending on how the consultation goes the scheme will either then be implemented or go back to the Traffic Committee.

We will keep working, with you, to improve road safety in the area.
