Copmanthorpe Primary School - Low Green Highway Improvements

Purpose of Report: Last year, concerns were raised about road safety on Low Green near the Primary School in Copmanthorpe. Visibility at a well used speed table crossing point is restricted by the existing road layout and parents parking near two of the entrances has made it difficult for children to cross the road. This reports put forward a highway improvement scheme to improve visibility at these three key locations by realigning a nearby junction and using school keep clear markings to discourage parking. It also summarises the consultation with interested parties in order to recommend a way forward.

The Cabinet Member is asked to approve the implementation of the proposals
