DARNLEY (GLASGOW) LOCAL GROUP

In Darnley Living Streets group, we aim to promote road safety by encouraging walking as a safe and easy alternative to driving.

 

As a result, we hope to reduce traffic and unsafe parking to make our streets safer for our community.

WHAT WE'RE DOING

We have several projects already under way:

  • We have reintroduced our walking bus to school on a Monday and Friday and it has been a HUGE success.
  • We have parking buddies and cones out on pavements to reduce unsafe and illegal pavement parking. These are proving to be very successful. We have been given a donation to purchase more cones.
  • We have joined forces with a local school to fight for a safer environment. Children at the school have been doing their Junior Road Safety Officer training and we hope to involve them in our work.
  • We set up a Park and Stride to help reduce congestion and road danger at Darnley Primary School.
