The Rosendale Clean Air group has set up a petition to ask for a temporary closure of Rosendale Road at drop off and pick up times:
We want a temporary school street outside Rosendale Primary School while the road works take place on Norwood Road. At normal times our school is just within the legal EU pollution limit. However, at the moment the traffic has increased hugely, due to the road works. We feel this must have pushed pollution up to illegal levels, particularly around school drop off and pick up times. We are very concerned. We have small children who are particularly vulnerable to pollution. We would like an immediate, emergency school street, while this situation continues. In the long term we would like a school street as soon as possible.
A school street is when the road around a street is closed at drop off and pick up times, to reduce pollution levels. Cars of residents, workers and disabled people can still access the road.
