Put in a set of traffic lights on Bicester Road, Kidlington

The outdated zebra crossing on Bicester Road in Kidlington, Harvester end, is no longer successful in keeping children safe as they cross the road to get to school.

More and more incidents are happening on a weekly basis. As many as FOUR A DAY have been witnessed!

At the council's request, Edward Feild School has taken on more new children than ever before at Reception stage. This looks likely to keep happening over the next few years in effect making the school expand. This in turn will increase the volume of pedestrians on Bicester Road.

The zebra crossing has become ineffective in its very purpose of providing safety and preventing injury to pedestrians.

Even with the presence of Police at the crossing, regular and shocking incidents are still happening.

A set of traffic lights would force cars to stop, allowing innocent and vulnerable Primary School children to cross in complete safety.

We cannot put it off any longer. As the rate of incidents that occur increases so does the likelihood of serious or even FATAL injuries. This CANNOT be allowed to happen.

Such young children should not have to dice with death on a regular basis Whilst learning and getting to grips with road safety.

WE CANNOT WAIT - WE ARE TEMPTING FATE!
