School Transport to Darran Park Primary and YGG Llyn y Forwyn for Blaenllechau pupils.
We would like the cabinet to reconsider their decision to remove school transport provision for children living in Blaenllechau and Taff Street and also introduce transport provision for children attending YGG Llyn y Forwyn.
Why is this important?
We feel that the distance from Blaenllechau to both schools in an unfair distance for a child to walk especially Infants aged children (3-7). This would be considerably worse in the Winter months.
Also with some children in full-time and some in part-time this could means numerous trips to and from school in one day.
Traffic around the school is already an issue and this could lead to further increase in traffic flow around the school.
We feel no consideration has been taking in declaring the route to school as a "safe route". There are being no extra measures introduced to increase the safety of our children.
Public transport is not an option as we only have one bus every hour, which would either make you 40 minutes early for school or 20 minutes late.
