    HAVE YOU CONTACTED THESE PEOPLE and EXPRESSED ROAD SAFETY CONCERNS?

    26 May 2023 (by admin)

    Can you continue to help school? Can you put your concerns about the WAKE GREEN ROAD in an email? A few minutes of your time can MAKE THE DIFFERENCE!

    Thank you to parents who have already contacted these people. Your COMMENTS can MAKE the DIFFERENCE and keep our children safe.

    The WAKE GREEN ROAD can be dangerous. It is a constant worry. WE HAVE MENTIONED IT TIME and TIME again.

    REMINDER.

    The Wake Green Road is the only available access point our children have to get to school safely and get home safely. 420 young children who all deserve the best possible safety ‘in and around’ school – including pavements/pedestrian zones along the Wake Green Road. 420 children walk in and walk out of school Monday to Friday.

    Our actions, the way we drive, the way vehicles are parked, blocking pavements, causing possible obstruction, can have a significant knock-on effect. It can cause disruption, frustration and anger. It can lead to an individual injury or serious injury. The knock-on effect can be dangerous and the Wake Green Road, as we all know, is extremely difficult to navigate.

    Please park further away from school and walk your child in.

    We continue to ask for assistance from the local authority, local police, our local MP and local councillor. Mr. Foley has held meetings with relevant parties to express our ongoing worries and concerns.

    We have emailed, made contact, asked for help, passed on our ongoing concerns. We have asked for more safety features outside school on the Wake Green Road – we continue to ask. CAN YOU ASK ALSO?

    It is everyone’s responsibility to do their bit to ensure the safety of all our children along the Wake Green Road. Your emails and correspondence can also make a difference. Where vehicles are actually parked on the Wake Green Road makes a difference. The way vehicles are parked along the Wake Green Road makes a difference. Parking much further away from school makes a difference.

    We have 420 wonderful children who come to St. Bernard’s every day…and we want to keep it that way!

    Every life is precious.

    Please help us and email your concerns to the relevant people…
