School Streets: Fairlight Primary School

We’re installing a School Streets scheme at Fairlight Primary School in time for the new school year in September.

We want to make the journey to and from school safer and pleasurable for everyone.

School Streets are designed to address issues on the roads around schools at drop off and pick up times, including congestion, illegal or unsafe parking immediately outside of school.

We do this by encouraging more walking, cycling and scooting, installing new or safer junctions and restricting access to motor vehicles around schools for one hour during drop off and pick up times.

Our proposed changes for the area around Fairlight Primary School include:

  • Improving accessibility with dropped kerbs and tactile paving on all existing crossing points around the school.
  • Installing grass verges and adding one additional parking space for the local community on Hastings Road.

Our proposals will prevent unsafe parking, reduce crossing distances and provide more space for pedestrians and cycle parking.

We want your views on the proposed design

The survey is open until Wednesday 17 July 2024 and should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete.

Phases

Phases overview

Trial period is now live

2 September 2024 23:00 - 4 March 2025 00:00

The public are invited to provide their thoughts and comments over the course of the initial six month comment period.

Current traffic regulation orders (brighton-hove.gov.uk)

The scheme is being implemented under an Experimental Traffic Regulation Order (ETRO). The ETRO will run for a minimum of 6 months and a maximum of 18 months while the effects are monitored and assessed. The initial 6 months serves as a statutory formal comment period, allowing suggestions for alterations or formal objections from the public at large. Changes can be made during the first six months of the experimental period if necessary.

If the experimental order is changed, then objections may be made within a further 6-months statutory formal comment period from the day that the experimental order is changed, up to a maximum of 18 months. Prior to the end of the 6-18 month comment period, the Council will make a decision on whether or not to continue with the changes brought in by the experimental order on a permanent basis.
