This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Install a pedestrian crossing on Osborne Road, outside Towers Infants School.
Osborne Road is a very busy road, used as a cut through, and despite the traffic calming measures, vehicles continue to travel at high speed. It has become an extremely dangerous place for children going into and out of school, and is a matter of time before a serious incident occurs.

It is a matter of time before a serious incident occurs, hence why I am starting this petition as a mother of 3 children at the school.
