Three roads in Cardiff are set to be added to a list of zones closed off to vehicles during the school run hours. Ysgol Pwll Coch, Fitzalan High, Kitchener Primary and St Pauls Church in Wales Primary will be added to Cardiff Council's School Streets scheme from September this year.
This will mean the closure of Lawrenny Avenue, Railway Terrace and Bromsgrove Street during peak drop-off and pick-up times. A total of 17 schools are currently part of the School Street scheme which is aimed at improving the safety of children travelling to school, promoting active travel and reducing air pollution.
The scheme affects 26 roads across the city. Only vehicles with valid School Street permits are allowed to access affected streets during the restricted hours.
