Councillors and the community of Eliburn have dismissed a safety report carried out at Peel Primary which said there was no need for a pedestrian crossing.
A report to the Livingston North Local Area Committee was condemned by local members and the community council for ignoring accident details.
The school, community and local members have been pushing for safer crossings around the school for more than two years. Earlier this year they called for a new safety audit following an accident close to the school.
