Bristol City Council is proposing to create a temporary walking, wheeling, cycling and scooting zone on a section of Fairfield Road, Fairlawn Road, Falkland Road, The Maltings and a section of Richmond Road during drop off and pick up times.
The scheme would operate between 8:25 – 9:10 in the morning and between 2:55 – 3:40 in the afternoon. The closure would be in place Monday to Friday, during term-time only.
Non-essential vehicles would not be allowed to enter the School Streets zone during the morning and afternoon closures. Emergency vehicles, specific Blue Badge holders requiring access to the school and residents of the affected section of Fairfield Road, Fairlawn Road, Falkland Road, The Maltings and the affected section of Richmond Road would be exempt from these restrictions.
Please note, a permanent one-way system has also been proposed on a section of Fairfield Road, Fairlawn Road and Falkland Road as part of the School Street proposal. The proposed direction is from Richmond Road towards Old Ashley Hill. This one-way system would be in place 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The proposed scheme would help to tackle congestion, unsafe parking, air pollution outside the school gates, and make it safer and easier to walk, wheel, cycle and scoot to school.
