The council finally caved and approved the zebra crossing after months of ignoring our safety concerns. 445 of us refused to let them brush this off until they had no choice but to listen. Keep a close eye on the construction crews because we will hold them to every single …
For the safety of our community - including our children, the elderly and also local drivers - please show your support for a ZEBRA CROSSING and BEACONS on STATION ROAD, Bourton on the Water by adding your name to this petition.
The crossing should be located opposite the new residential care homes leading to the path that accesses The Cotswold School, Bourton Primary School and Bourton itself. The need for a zebra crossing has been long felt.
Now, with even more children and elderly crossing this road (including during times when there is no lollipop service), as well as increased traffic volume, the need for a crossing and beacons has become a matter of urgency.
We just hit 250 signatures and the council still thinks they can ignore this death trap on Station Road. They are gambling with the safety of our kids and elderly neighbors while they sit in their offices doing nothing. This is just the beginning of the fight to force them to act.
