Street improvements around schools

West Acton Primary School

We are developing a project to make the area outside West Acton Primary School safer and more pleasant for everyone, and we would like your help.

This project aims to help children feel safer on their school journey, increase walking, cycling and other forms of active travel, and improve air quality at peak times, without restricting access for drivers.  

To create the design proposals for this project we need to understand the issues that all people encounter at the start and end of the school day, in the area outside the school gates. We are asking residents, parents/, carers, school staff and the children themselves to tell us about their local area. Their feedback will help us identify possible solutions and consider any changes that could make a difference and improve the area. 

We organised a drop in event at the school and ran an online survey to give everyone the opportunity to share their views and ideas.

Next steps

We are reviewing the feedback to understand what people said. Consultants will use this to develop the design proposals.

At the drop-in event and through completion of the survey, people were invited to join a working group. The group will meet to discuss the feedback and design proposals before we finalise the details.

We will update this page when the final designs have been approved and we are ready to complete the project. We hope to begin installation of the improvements during the school’s summer break.
