school’s school street pilot commenced on the 5 June 2023,
after an extensive consultation with the school SLT, residents,
parents and councillors. The school street was introduced using an

Progressing permanent Traffic Orders to support the installation of

permanent features

from entering the School Street zone/s of each school at drop off

measures and continue to use the experimental powers until they
expire and continue to monitor the scheme
Alternative options considered:
