A School Street is a scheme where the road(s) outside a school is closed to most vehicles during school opening and closing times, helping children walk or cycle to school safely.
Shoreditch Park Primary School received a School Street in September 2020 as part of Hackney Council's effort to rebuild greener spaces. The aim is to promote cleaner air, reduce congestion and increase levels of active travel, creating a more pleasant environment for local communities.
