What the petition asks

Make the road safer for school children and pedestrians in the road areas of Goffs Churchgate Academy Cheshunt Herts.
Make the road outside the school safe by implementing traffic calming measures 20mph. I have contacted the council in November 2020 as a van collided with the railings outside of the school. Since then railings on both sides have been hit and also vehicles are using the
opposite side of road to reach traffic lights for turning right.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
