School Entrances and Judder Bars

Andrew from Trentham

As the first term ends and as the guardian to a Primary School Child and Kindergarten child, it is still to my horror that there are no Judder Bars at either entrance to Trentham Primary School nor Cottle Kindy.

As the first term ends and as the guardian to a Primary School Child and Kindergarten child, it is still to my horror that there are no Judder Bars at either entrance to Trentham Primary School nor Cottle Kindy.

Even though the law says there is a 40 km limit, it just leaves me shocked that come 08:30 - 09:15 & 14:30 - 15:30 when kids are being dropped off or picked.

The amount of moron drivers that drive through the narrow streets at speed without any concern for kids crossing the road is unbelievable. I know this will sound sexist but about 75% of said drivers appear to me as young women.

Where are the Police when you need them? I ask the council to now install kidder bars 25 meters apart at all the entrances. At Stephens Street, Thackeray Street, Sheridan Crescent.

Whilst at it, can you put judder bars ever 50 meters all around Thackeray Street to slow the not racers and Boy and down? Before someone including a child gets killed by one of these morons?
