School crossing patrols
The School Crossing Patrol Service is currently responsible for 119 School Crossing sites in Wirral. Wirral's School Crossing Patrols are responsible for safely crossing thousands of adults and children every year.
Requests for new sites come from Schools, Parents and Road Safety Organisations. When a request is submitted we carry out a site assessment which involves:-
- Pedestrian Counts (accompanied and unaccompanied children)
- Vehicle Counts
- Evaluations of the area (sight lines, pavement and road widths etc)
The above figures are then calculated which then leads to either a patrol crossing being granted or refused.
For further information or to request a school crossing site please either call StreetScene on 606 2004, email streetscene@wirral.gov.uk or click on the "Request Service" button.
