Visitors, tradespeople and deliveries to residents
Medical and care visitors can access the street at all times, but it would be best if arrivals and departures could be scheduled outside of the enforcement hours.
Visitors of residents living on the street, tradespeople, and delivery vehicles can access the road. However, residents are asked to try and avoid arranging deliveries or driving a motor vehicle on the street during the enforced closure hours to avoid conflicts with pupils and families during the school run.
Vehicles that are already parked on the street
All parking restrictions will operate as normal on school streets during enforcement hours. Any vehicles that are legally parked can stay parked.
Vehicles already parked within a School Street closure before the enforcement hours begin can leave when they need to, without penalty. However, only exempt vehicles will be permitted to return to the closure area during enforcement hours.
Vehicles that enter the closure before the enforcement period begins may not remain in the closure by parking in Keep Clear zones, by double parking, or through any other illegal means.
Any non-exempt vehicle that entered a school street closure prior to the enforcement period but cannot park safely and legally inside the closure must exit the closure and cannot return until the enforcement period has ended. Any vehicle that remains parked legally within the closure must also adhere to anti-idling regulations.
You don't need to register your vehicle if you're exempt
We do not require vehicle registration for School Street access at this time.
How to get a School Street at your school
All infant, junior and primary schools have been assessed for their eligibility for a School Streets closure based on criteria agreed upon by the Environment, Transport, and Sustainability Committee.
Each programme year, up to 6 schools will be prioritised for implementation of a school streets scheme in the order in which they have scored for prioritisation based on the established criteria.
