Put up a sign or a light outside a school

What the petition asks
The school my daughter goes to is on a busy road, there are no signs to slow the traffic down. I have to cross this road with children morning and night and it’s dangerous
The school needs a sign or flashing lights to show drivers that there is a school there. There have been near misses already and I fear someone will get hit especially now it’s dark at pick up.
