Road Reopening

“School Street Closure

From Friday 4 March 2022 the Experimental Traffic Order in Rectory Road will not be in place and the road will be open to all traffic at school drop off and pick up times.

South Gloucestershire Council has made the decision to not convert the Experimental Traffic Order to a permanent Traffic Order in its current form. The decision was made that the current experiment will lapse at midnight on Thursday 3rd March. This difficult decision was taken considering several incidents and conflicts that have become apparent since the consultation closed and the difficulties the school are having in maintaining adequate staffing of the closure points.

South Gloucestershire Road Safety Team will be in school all day on 3 March delivering a range of road safety initiatives with specific messages regarding the removal of the school street closure.

We ask that you speak to your child(ren) and ensure they are aware that traffic will be moving in the road from this date and to take care when crossing the road and exiting the school”.
