Rejected petition Install a pedestrian crossing outside Wouldham All Saints primary school

A pedestrian crossing and crossing patrol person are urgently needed outside Wouldham All Saints Primary School to allow children to cross Worral Drive safely in the mornings and when leaving school at 15:15pm.

More details

It is a busy road, on a bend, with lots of cars, vans and lorries coming and going at peak times. Due to the curved shape of the road, it is very difficult to see when it is safe to cross and with no speed limits currently imposed it is only a matter of time until a serious accident or fatality occurs.
