We are 4 GCSE citizenship students , and we are campaigning for a pedestrian crossing to be installed on Kings Road, Horsham, West Sussex. We feel that a crossing is necessary because this is stretch of road where lots of young families need to cross on their way to and from school. The road is often congested, the traffic is horrendous and crossing is currently extremely hazardous. We would be very grateful if you could sign our petition and show your support and help us improve what we believe is unsafe situation.

This is an amazing idea, I went to Kingslea when it was Chesworth over 20 years ago and crossing the road was always terrifying.
I cross this road and I agree that it is too dangerous for the ages of the people who cross this road everyday to get to school! Me and my friend struggle to get across the road everyday!
This is something which needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency. As things stand, all pupils and the general public are at great risk of injury during peak times.
As a grandparent walking into town with young children I know this road needs traffic lights. Also Foundry lane needs a zebras crossing.
Our family live on Kings Road, and it should have a pedestrian crossing near the school. Well done on starting this campaign girls. Good luck.
Having recently moved to the area , this was on my must try and get something sorted list! Well done girls for starting the petition. If I can help in any way please email me . Regards Karen
A fantastic idea for our children's safety

I fully support this petition I lived just off the Kings Road before the school was built and the traffic was not as bad as it is now. Being a straight road encourages drivers to speed in spite of it being in a 30mph limit. If a crossing is too expensive why not drop the speed limit to 20mph in the vicinity of the school
