"That this committee recommends that a lollipop person be appointed immediately for the Whitechurch Road adjacent to Willbrook – pedestrian lights have been recommended in the recent consultants report – therefore in the interim logic would suggest/ & also a child being knocked down there recently - that a lollipop is very necessary in the interim period. It is acknowledged that it will take time to get the pedestrian lights/traffic calming etc. on the ground following the part 8 procedure currently underway. We are encouraging children to walk to school for health reasons not to mention traffic congestion; reduction of C02; and reaching our Kyoto target. Parents are currently driving their children short distances for safety reasons – 4 good reasons for facilitating this request – the most important being the safety of the children."
