Members of Living Streets Guernsey looking at walking routes to the new St Sampson’s Schools earlier this year.

LIVING STREETS GUERNSEY is continuing to campaign for a safe walking route to St Sampson’s High – and is urging islanders to road-test a potential new route.

The pedestrian safety group has been in discussions with landowners to try to secure a safe walking and cycling route for children living in St Peter Port.

Teachers, parents and students are invited to try the route – from Pitronnerie Road Industrial Estate via the Island Bowl to the back of the new school site – on Saturday from 2pm.

‘We are extremely grateful to the owner of the vinery site which backs onto the school for giving us permission to walk over his land so that parents and children can see the potential of this possible route,’ said group chairman John Gollop.
