Safe travel

School Travel Plan


A School Travel Plan (STP) sets out how a school will promote safer, active and sustainable travel to and from school.

The main emphasis is on reducing the number of children being driven to and from school, therefore reducing traffic congestion and parking problem outside the school. Less vehicles near the school will improve air quality and make it a nicer environment for the pupils and parents.

A School Travel Plan is the first step for tackling the issue of inconsiderate parking outside schools at school travel time.
