Keep school kids at Langmoor Primary School safe
Implement safety measures - such as speed bumps and signs - to control the traffic and restrict speed limit outside Langmoor Primary School in Oadby.
Why is this important?
There is currently no measures to control the traffic and restrict speed limit outside Langmoor Primary School in Oadby. With no speed bumps and only a tiny sign indicating there is a school there, many drivers drive 30+ miles per hour. This regularly occurs during start and end of school time. Heavy vehicles such as trucks, lorries and vans drive pass the road during school drop off and pick up times, creating hazardous situations for primary-age children.
With the school on one side of the road and park/playground on the other, and with the parents' cars parked on the road (temporarily) the passing heavy vehicles and frustrated drivers, who want to speed up as usual and make their way through, create high risk for families to walk by.
Local authorities should have already put measures in place to control the traffic and restrict speed outside this school just like all other schools in Oadby and Wigston.
It's time for the Council to take action to protect safety of our children before a regrettable incident.
Please join me and sign this petition in the hope we can make a change, not just for our own kids, but for the safety of other kids going to this school in the future.
