Purpose

The
Firs Primary School has increased from a 2-form entry school to a
3-form entry school, and after the expansion the school will cater
for an additional 210 pupils. To accommodate the increase of pupils
a new pedestrian access onto Firs Road has been included as part of
the expansion works. Firs Primary School have asked the Council to
install a School Keep Clear marking to prevent vehicles from
parking directly outside the new access to maintain pedestrian
safety. The proposal includes a length of No Waiting Mon-Fri
8am-5pm.
 
By
introducing the proposed restrictions, it will provide a clear path
for pedestrians to access the school without vehicular conflict
maintaining pedestrian safety.
