Holbrook School Street ban divides opinion as some say 'it won't make any difference'
Coventry Live readers have been sharing their views on a new School Street scheme designed to make the roads around a primary school safer for children during busy drop-off and collection times.
The scheme has been introduced around Holbrook Primary School, covering Crown Green and Gateside Road. It restricts vehicle access from Monday to Friday, between 8.15am and 9.15am and 2.45pm and 3.45pm, with the aim of reducing traffic and encouraging more families to walk or cycle to school.
The restrictions do not apply at weekends, and residents living on the affected roads can apply for parking permits.
Holbrook Primary is the latest school in Coventry to introduce the scheme, with similar School Streets already operating at Templars Primary, Cardinal Wiseman, Southfields Primary, Stanton Bridge Primary and Ravensdale........
