Anger has ensued as Argyll and Bute Council revealed plans to cut crossing patrols across the region, with claims that it will put ‘school children’s lives at risk’.
The local authority has proposed a cost-cutting exercise, which could see 20 crossing patrol positions cut across the region, but council chiefs have suggested that volunteers and those in the community replace them.
Terri Colloton is a member of the parent/teacher council for Colgrain Primary, as well as being part of the parent council network for Argyll and Bute and has started a petition to combat the proposal.
