Last chance to get your views in on the planned Safe Routes to School Scheme for the Holy Family national schools in Carlow town

You have until tonight (Tuesday) to have your say on the Safe Routes to School Scheme for the Holy Family National Schools in a part of Carlow town.

In a bid to increase awareness of vulnerable road users, it’s proposed School Zones be installed in front of both the neighbouring primary schools in Askea.

The addition would see pencil-shaped bollards and colourful road markings added to the area to encourage motorists to slow down while parking on pavements would be prevented and there would be safer drop-off points.

Submissions can be accepted until midnight via consult.carlow.ie or you can email [email protected] with the subject line clearly noted as “SRTS Askea National Schools – Section 38”.
