Safer School Crossings

Too many children in Essex face danger when walking to school due to the lack of safe pedestrian crossings outside or near our schools.

Liberal Democrat County Councillors do not think the County Council is doing enough to ensure the safety of our children in particular, as it is not providing funds to make crossings safer, even in areas where fatal accidents have occurred.

We need 8,000 signatures to get the County Council to debate this issue. If you live in Essex, please fill in your postcode below when signing the petition.
We call upon Essex County Council to provide and improve pedestrian crossings, particularly outside or near schools, to stop serious or fatal accidents from occurring.
