the area, parking and consideration or lack of from drivers has become worse over the past few years. Someone is going to be seriously hurt. How many near misses or what ifs does there have to be?

Parking has become increasingly worse with the growing class numbers at school. This isn't made any easier for parents when the residents of skelton walk / Churchill avenue repeatedly block the parking spaces in the garage area to purposely prevent parents from parking safely to drop their children to school. These are not private driveways, they are council owned land. The junction of Churchill ave / booth lane is particularly bad with cars parked on the corners and pavement on both sides of the road. Some parents only concern is collecting their children. Not thinking of the safety of the rest of the community. Walking isn't an option for many parents as they live too far away, have children to take to multiple schools or have to rush off to work.

Inconsiderate parking and idiotic driving along the pavement makes me fear for my child's life and the lives of his fellow pupils. If people are too dumb to have the common sense to know for themselves this is dangerous then laws need to be enforced to help them understand..

People mounting the pavement as children and parents are walking to school, irresponsible and dangerous. It's about time yellow lines are put along there!

I am very concerned about the large number of parents that think it is acceptable to park across pavements on all routes to Boothville Primary School. This includes Churchill Ave, where cars parked on the junction obscure the view of pedestrians crossing. The lack of concern for others and their inability to understand basic rules of the road is very alarming. Please do encourage other parents to sign this petition in order to keep our children safe.

The grass area outside of Zigzag (old nursery) is also not a parking space. Some very lazy and dangerous people around.

Pavements and grass verges are not for cars. Something needs to be done, before a child is seriously injured

Pavements I believe are for pedestrians

Absolutely agree. Measures are needed in all the surrounding streets including near the shops where terrible parking is an issue for school children and other members of the public alike.

Not just on Booth Lane North but also along Keswick Drive to protect children using the rear gate to and from school.
