This is a petition to keep all children (and parents) arriving and leaving Birchfield Community Primary School safe whilst crossing the busy St.Johns Road. The road is particularly busy at these times and a pedestrian crossing or lollipop person should be in place for the safe guarding of everyone walking to school. None of my four children have attended a school where there has not been a safe place to cross the road and I feel very strongly that we should have one here. Please take a moment to share your support and sign the petition and let’s ensure the safety of our children. Thankyou
I have been reviewing the stories many of you shared about your own experiences navigating the traffic near the school gates. These accounts confirm that our concerns are widely held and deeply felt by families in this neighborhood. I am currently preparing to present this collection of experiences to the local council so they can see the reality of what we face each morning.

Reaching this level of support confirms that our community sees the same dangers on St. Johns Road that I do every morning. It is heartening to see so many people align behind the simple idea that child safety should never be a matter of luck.

I agree with this petition as i have two small children, who attend the primary school. Everytime we have to cross its like taking our live in our hands.

This needs to be a priority, does it have to take a serious accident to happen before this is considered

The roads around birch field school are so unsafe if parents are running late they speed to get there child/children into the school ASAP. I've had near misses & my friend a couple years ago actually got hit by a car reversing back, luckily it wasn't serious but if that was a child it could've been so much worse. Something needs to be put in place around the area

As the years have gone on this road has become so busy, more cars racing up and down that road. What happened to the good old lollipop lady/man/non-binory/ person?
