The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she is taking to improve road safety near schools in Surrey Heath constituency.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

My Department is developing our Road Safety Strategy and will set out more details in due course.

Active Travel England and my Department published joint School Streets Guidance in November 2024. School Streets schemes restrict motor traffic outside schools during pick-up and drop-off times; reducing congestion, improving safety and enabling more pupils to walk, wheel or cycle.
