\n He said: “Seeing the lollipop ladies that were here before gave me a sense of peace and security and safety for the kids.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Some kids just zoom past and run down the road, and some people drive recklessly.\n<\/p>\n
\n “It\u00a0is going to be chaos because not every parent actually comes down to take their kids to school.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Stephanie McGeoch, from the parent council, says the volunteers could only run the crossing patrols for one week, saying they were worried West Dunbartonshire Council would rely on their presence.\n<\/p>\n
\n She said: “It’s great that they’re doing it, but there’s just not enough of them to do it.\n<\/p>\n
\n “It\u2019s not sustainable; we have tried to do it for longer, but we can\u2019t.”\n<\/p>\n
\n After the Clydebank Post contacted the council, they announced they would be repainting the lines and reviewing the timings of the junction.\n<\/p>\n
\n A West Dunbartonshire Council spokesperson said: \u201cThe roads service will review the timing of the traffic lights and refresh the box junction to further strengthen safety at the site.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cIn addition, each school has a travel plan and works with parents, pupils and the wider school community to identify safe routes to school.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a bid to “keep children safe”, a team of parents have been donning high-vis vests and standing…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":375218,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7826],"tags":[748,918,4884,712,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-375217","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-glasgow","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-glasgow","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-scotland","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115095683883466369","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375217","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=375217"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375217\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/375218"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=375217"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=375217"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=375217"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
