Traffic safety measures for all Surrey Schools

We the undersigned petition Surrey County Council to Install traffic calming measures, parking on pavement restrictions and reduce speed limits to 20mph on all roads housing Surrey schools. Living on a road which has entrances to both of Knaphill Schools within it, I witness dangerous driving and parking on a daily basis, not just during term time but also during holidays when clubs are being run. It is only a matter of time until a child or adult is hurt, but we have previously been told that only such an incident will result in measures being put in place. This is unacceptable and preventative measures need to be put in place as soon as possible. 1) Limit speeds near all schools to 20mph 2) Make pavement parking near schools a prosecutable offence 3) Traffic calming measures to make drivers more aware of their speeds near schools.
