Amendment to 2026/27 Local Active Travel Safety Programme
The Local Active Travel Safety Programme
submitted with the 2026/27 Budget papers included a scheme for a
zebra crossing in Weston Lane near King Edward’s Pre Prep
School.
It has since been confirmed that the pre-prep school will be moving
premises, which will significantly reduce the crossing movements in
this part of Weston Lane, meaning a formal crossing facility is no
longer necessary.
It is proposed that the £50,000 budget that had been
allocated towards the cost of this crossing should be re-allocated
towards the cost of providing a zebra crossing in Bloomfield Road
near the junction with Somerdale Avenue instead, to provide an
improved crossing facility on a route used by children and parents
going to/from St Philip’s Primary School.
