Installment of crossing Stannington Road/ Acorn Drive Junction/ Top of Nook Lane

We the undersigned petition the council to The area described above is used regularly by school children to cross too/ from both Stannington Infant School/ Nook Lane Junior School. The junction is met by 3 way traffic and can be difficult to cross. For the safety of the children and other pedestrians we strongly request a pedestrian crossing or similar be installed.

There was an incident lately with a small child crossing and a car and I don’t belive its the first incident at this junction. My child personally has had a near miss. A junction would let drivers know they should stop both ways to allow safe crossing. At present, stopping isn’t always the better option as you can’t be sure drivers from other directions will also slow/ stop and it causes confusion. I have also been involved in an incident at this junction - as a driver, and my child had a near miss as a pedestrian.
