School Streets - St George's Primary School

St George’s Primary School and Wirral Council worked together to trial a School Street outside the lower site on St George’s Road. This scheme has now been made permanent.

A School Street is a stretch of road outside a school that is temporarily closed to traffic during school drop off and pick-up times.

St George’s Primary School is one of the largest primary schools in Wirral with over 700 children arriving and leaving on a short stretch of St George’s Road. We ran a temporary road closure outside St George’s Primary School during the COVID-19 pandemic, owing to the size of the school roll and the available space for social distancing. A School Street Experimental Traffic Regulation Order (ETRO) will now enable communities to have their say on these arrangements.

The Roads that will be closed to general traffic are

  • St Georges Road (in-between Perrin Road and St Johns Road)
  • Walkers Croft

The map below shows which roads will be closed during the School Street operational hours:



How can I have my say?

Thank you to those who contributed to our survey. This survey is now closed. The findings will be analysed and shared once the pilot is complete.
