Healthy School Streets - informal public consultation

We would like to hear your views on plans to trial Healthy School Streets at 13 sites across the borough. Croydon has already 24 successful Healthy School Streets schemes in place with the first installed back in 2017. The council wants to increase the number of schemes, but before doing so, we are keen to hear your views.

What are Healthy School Streets?

Healthy School Streets help pupils to have safer, healthier journeys to and from school, by restricting the roads outside the school during school drop-off and pick-up times. This will not affect residents' access – if you live in those roads, you will be able to apply for a free exemption permit.

This encourages parents and pupils to leave the car at home more often for the school run, and instead choose more sustainable and active means of travel, such as walking, cycling, or scooting. Healthy School Streets benefit residents by decreasing motor traffic in their neighbourhood during busy pick-up and drop-off hours – reducing congestion, noise, and air pollution.

Benefits of Healthy School Streets:

  • Safer school journeys for pupils
  • Make it easier to choose sustainable travel like walking and cycling
  • Cleaner and less polluted streets
  • Improve our air quality
  • Encourage active travel, helping to promote healthy lifestyles
