NEW traffic-calming measures around St Sampson’s High and Le Murier schools have been welcomed by Living Streets Guernsey.
The pedestrian safety group said the steps being taken would be for the benefit of everybody, including those who live near the new school.
‘We are absolutely delighted the road planners are adopting the measures that we asked for,’ said group secretary Pat Wisher. ‘We are particularly pleased to see that they will be introducing a 2.5-metre kerbed footpath and cycle way in Duveaux Road and Baubigny Road.’
Members had been concerned that the planners would just mark the road with a white line. ‘Traffic will get three metres, so the share has been divided almost equally between vulnerable road users and motorists,’ said Mrs Wisher.
