The Area Committee has approved the proposals for the Road Safety around Schools scheme in the vicinity of Cale Green Primary School to be funded from the Road Safety Around Schools Programme budget allocation as shown on Drawing No. 0305/53/CG/001 Rev A attached to the report. The proposals include:-
· Review and upgrade of existing school warning signage along Lowfield Road and Shaw Heath;
· Installation of dropped kerbs with tactile paving and pencil bollards on Green Street to aid pedestrians to cross and gain access to the primary school;
· Revocation of ‘School Keep Clear’ restrictions and replacement with ‘No Waiting’ at times shown (8.00am-5.00pm) restrictions on Shaw Road South to avoid confusion and enable enforcement;
· Introduction of ‘No Loading; restrictions for times shown (7.30am-10.00am and 3.00pm-7.00pm) on Shaw Heath to protect the school crossing; and
· Relocation of one of the existing ’20 Zone’ signs to improve visibility from Lowfield Road.
The Area Committee further approved the Traffic Regulation Orders set out in Appendix A to the report and shown on the plans attached to the report and, subject to no objections being received within twenty one days from the advertisement date, the Orders can be made.
