URGENT COMMUNITY ACTION
On Tuesday 12th May, the council will make a decision whether to make all, some or none of the Greenbank to Meadows Quiet Route permanent. This route protects children travelling to 6 primary schools and James Gillespie’s High School.
We’re asking everyone to join us at lunchtime on Tuesday 12th May outside the City Chambers at 12:30pm to show the strength of community support for these road safety measures. Our message being “Keep Our Kids Safe”. We know a show of community support outside the meeting venue works, so let’s get this crucial route for kids made permanent!
Not able to join us on the day? Then please write to your ward councillors, copying-in the TRO councillors, by Tuesday to ask for the entire route to be made permanent.
