Parking Watch at Topsite!

Topsite's Eco Council were out in full force on Tuesday afternoon! With the help from our Active Travel Officer, Chris Malburn, we created a tally to spot parking that was great and that could be better. We will be hosting another parking watch event next week to gather more data! 

Chris commented, "Many thanks to the pupils from St George’s topsite who joined me to review the parking situation on the roads outside of the school site at the end of the school day. The pupils learned about what parking restrictions mean, and some of the ways they can protect people. We then walked along Claremount Road to survey how well cars were parked, ranking them as “good”, “bad”, and “could be better”. On the whole parking was mostly good, but many pupils had gone home early due to activities going on in school. We will be comparing this to a more usual day in the coming weeks, and reporting back"
