Healthy School Streets Scheme - Frequently asked questions

Is this a ban on parents driving to school?

No, it is a ban on driving just on streets around school entrances; parents who feel they need to drive will have to park legally nearby and walk the last leg of the journey. At many schools, there is already a high proportion of pupils walking and cycling to school and a significant number of vehicles are using the streets as a short cut on their journey elsewhere, rather than getting to school.
