Road near primary school set for permanent closure
A stretch of road near a primary school is set to be permanently closed off to traffic to improve safety. Wokingham Borough Council is looking to ban vehicles from School Road in Arborfield, Berkshire. Under the plan, vehicles - excluding emergency services and local buses - would not be allowed to exit or enter parts of the road near the Coombes Primary School. The authority said the proposal to bring in the ban permanently comes after a successful trial with a final decision expected on 2 May. Arborfield and Newland Parish Council said the experimental closure of School Road had "been very successful" and "very popular" with parents at the Coombes Primary School. The parish council said the scheme would improve "the lives of residents" and urged the borough council to permanently close the stretch of School Road.
