I went to the 'consultation' yesterday and was distinctly unimpressed. It is as most residents feared, trying to put the biggest possible school on the site, and making nominal attempts to address the problems. To hit the headline here first, there's no way that staggering the start times for different age groups is going to significantly impact the traffic issues. Neither is walking buses, drop off points (at the Odeon) or cycle paths. My guesstimate is that there will be an EXTRA 500 car movements, twice a day. Plus there are only a handful of parking spaces for a projected 240 members of staff.
