Barham Primary School Street
We are proposing a new School Street Zone for Barham Primary School. This is part of Brent Council's broader initiative to enhance air quality, promote children's health, address the climate emergency, and create a safer environment for children to walk and cycle. The primary goal of this scheme is to encourage and support the adoption of more sustainable forms of transport and create a safer environment for children to walk and cycle to school.
In alignment with the Council's commitment to make improvements around schools in the borough, the implementation of School Streets is a key component of our strategy. These initiatives contribute not only to the immediate safety and well-being of children but also align with our broader objectives of fostering a healthier and more sustainable community. Through such measures, we aim to create a positive impact on air quality, promote physical activity, and mitigate the effects of the climate emergency.
Phases
Consultation
A School Street is a road outside (or very close to) a school where motorised traffic is restricted at specific times to make the area safer, quieter, and less polluted for children and families.
The scheme will operate from Monday to Friday (in term-time) from 8:00am to 9:00am in the morning and in the afternoon from 2:30pm to 4:00pm. School term dates can be found here: https://www.brent.gov.uk/services-for-residents/education-and-schools/term-dates/
Residents and blue-badge holders who live within the zone, marked by the red dotted line below, and emergency vehicles will be exempt from these restrictions. The road also remains open to pedestrians and cyclists. The main principle is to make the route to school safer for pupils by reducing the volume of cars, reducing air pollution, and enabling more walking, and cycling
