Trinity School trial
From September 2024 to July 2025, temporary road improvements will be in place outside Trinity School on La Route de la Trinité.
The trial includes:
- reduction of speed limit to 20mph
- pedestrians crossing build-outs
- improved waiting area for bus users
- traffic calming measures
If you’re travelling by car to Trinity School, you should park in The Riley Field.
Motorised traffic won’t be able to turn right from La Route de la Trinité into Les Ruelles at any time.
As part of Trinity School Street pilot, Les Ruelles will also be closed to motorised traffic Monday to Friday:
- 8.15am to 9am
- 2.30pm to 3.15pm
Trinity School will be managing the access.

About the trial
The trial is in place to improve facilities for pedestrians and bus users at Trinity School.
It provides:
- safer pedestrian access to Trinity School for children, families and staff
- safer waiting areas for bus users or crossing to La Route de la Trinité
- safer crossing between La Route de la Trinité and Les Ruelles
Before the trial, it was difficult for Trinity School children and parents to cross the main road. It also limited access for the school to use The Riley Field for lessons and play.
The bus waiting area was on the road. Children would sit on the safety barrier at the edge of the road where there is a steep fall behind them.
To address these issues, we provided:
- temporary footway build outs to narrow the road and improve the crossing facility. The build outs also provide an improved waiting area for bus passengers and slow down the traffic
- a full time 20mph speed limit. This is to slow down the traffic and help the school access The Riley Field
Upcoming projects
We’re looking to improve the Bagatelle area between St Saviour’s Primary School and Victoria College Preparatory School.
More information will be provided when available. Schools and residents in the areas will also be contacted.
What Safer School Zones are
Safer School Zones are the roads near schools that we can improve to make it safer to travel in the area.
The aim is to encourage students, families and staff to walk and cycle to school.
We can make school zones safer by:
- creating or improving crossings
- making changes to junctions
- widening footways
- restricting or lowering the speed of motor traffic
Improving the bus service and providing better travel information can also help reduce car trips and encourage more people to actively travel.
School Streets
A School Street is a road outside a school with a temporary restriction on motorised traffic access during school term drop-off and pick-up times.
It’s another way to make routes near schools safer.

School Street Scheme for safer travel to school.
School Travel Reports
The reports provide a list of issues and opportunities to help us:
- improve routes to schools
- create Safer School Zones
- increase active travel
We use the reports with schools and other stakeholders to develop plans to make routes to schools safer and support the sustainable travel policy.
The reports are developed in phases with individual school communities. We hope to have all reports for the remaining schools by 2025.
