After School Streets Perception Survey - Cathedral Primary School and Bristol Cathedral Choir School

A School Street scheme is a road outside a school with a temporary restriction on motorised traffic at school drop-off and pick-up times. School Street schemes offer a proactive solution for school communities to tackle road danger, poor health and air pollution. The result is a safer, healthier and more pleasant environment for everyone.

Bristol City Council introduced a School Streets scheme at Cathedral Primary School and Bristol Cathedral Choir School on 4 September 2023, and we are now looking for your feedback on how you think it has been working, your level of awareness and understanding of the scheme, perceptions on compliance and safety, and the impact on your daily life.
