Edge Street - Experimental Pedestrian and Cycle Zone (outside Fox Primary School)

We asked for views on the proposal to make permanent an experimental School Street pedestrian and cycle zone in Edge Street. From 19^th April 2021. All motor vehicles were restricted from entering the closed area between 8.15am to 9am and between 3.30pm to 4pm Mondays to Fridays. On 20^th May 2021, we amended the closure times to between 8.15am and 9am and between 3pm and 4pm Mondays to Fridays.

We received seven objections to the proposal - 14 in response to the first Experimental Traffic Order (ETO), three of which have also responded to the second ETO, and three in response to the Snapshot Survey.  There were also 21 supportive comments 10 in response to the first ETO, one of which also emailed a letter of support regarding the second ETO and 11 positive responses to the Snapshot Survey.

We have made permanent the experimental traffic order to provide a School Street pedestrian and cycle zone in Edge Street. All motor vehicles are restricted from entering the closed area between 8.15am and 9am and between 3pm and 4pm Mondays to Fridays.
