To Croydon London Borough Council, the petition of
Croydon residents supported by Chris Philp MP and Purley & Woodcote ward councillors, Simon Brew, Samir Dwesar and Holly Ramsey,
asks Croydon Council to
take urgent action to tackle road safety concerns near St David’s School on Woodcote Valley Road, Purley
. This includes the implementation of a
zebra crossing as well as consideration of other measures
, including chicanes, new speed awareness signage, speed sensors for data collection and width restrictors.
At present,
pupils, staff and parents of St David’s School do not feel safe
crossing outside the school as a result of traffic. The location of the
school fields also means that multiple classes must walk across each day
. Sadly
injuries have already occurred
and the current situation
disincentivises active travel
to school.
The
existing traffic calming measures are insufficient
and in the interest of road safety, we urge the Council to take swift and appropriate action.
