Peticioni i drejtohet: London Borough of Harrow Council, specifically the Highways / Traffic & Road Safety teams, in consultation with the school.

We, the undersigned parents and carers of children at Vaughan Primary School, are calling on Harrow Council to urgently review and improve road safety outside the school.

In recent months, there have been multiple serious incidents involving children being struck by vehicles on the road immediately outside the school gates, during drop-off and pick-up times. These incidents have occurred following changes to the road layout, which many parents feel have created confusion for drivers and unsafe conditions for pedestrians.

The current situation presents an unacceptable risk to children, families, and school staff.
We are therefore asking Harrow Council to:

• carry out an urgent road safety assessment outside the school,
• review collision and near-miss data since the road layout changes,
• and introduce appropriate safety measures, including serious consideration of a School Street scheme or equivalent traffic restrictions during school hours.

The safety of children travelling to and from school must be a priority. We urge the council to act quickly to prevent further incidents and to work with the school and local community on a lasting solution.

Signed,
Parents and carers of pupils at Vaughan Primary School, Harrow
