We, the staff and governors, are deeply concerned about the speed of traffic on London Road close to the school. Tenterfield School is also on London Road directly opposite Welwyn St Mary’s and therefore their children share the same road safety risks.

The volume of traffic continues to increase and the finalisation of the development of the Frythe with 196 homes will add to the problem. The traffic often exceeds the legal speed limit and therefore we are recommending that traffic calming measures between the Crescent and Ottaway Walk are installed.

There are over 500 children attending the two schools and we consider that their safety requires the reduction of traffic speed on this section of London Road.

Please sign the electronic petition alternatively come to the School Office if you would like to sign this petition.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Rev’d D Munchin

Chair of Governors
