Should certain streets be closed when schoolchildren enter and leave? The question hardly arises in various cities – as with our neighbors in Strasbourg – where “school streets” (also called “school streets”) are experimented with. The principle ? Prevent cars from accessing the surroundings of establishments, victims of traffic and / or parking.
On this subject, if Nancy has not (yet?) Taken the plunge, the hypothesis is not excluded according to Charlotte Marelle. On the occasion of the Assises de la Mobilité this Saturday in Vandoeuvre, the Nancy assistant to Mobilities has indeed slipped that the option could be on the mat, in the medium term.
“To establish a school street, we already need a street that is a little more peaceful than what we currently know downtown; but with the pedestrianization of a perimeter of the center (a test will take place during the summer from July 10, Editor’s note), we could have more opportunities to find a street and a school where this device would be applicable. It would then remain to be seen what development would be necessary, “said the elected representative, stressing the need” to bring the city back to the level of children. “
A school street project – which could concern public schools as well as private schools – would obviously involve new habits. “Today, parents drop off or pick up their children as quickly as possible; However, I am convinced that by leaving a quarter of an hour earlier, we can take more time and do part of the journey on foot. “
