If you're a school, find out about local schemes to help schoolchildren stay safe on our roads.

Set up a school travel plan

All schools must create and run a school travel plan. School travel plans are working documents that aim to: 

  • improve the health and fitness of pupils and staff
  • provide a healthier environment
  • help teach responsibility and independence
  • get funding for your school - contact us for more information
  • improve relations with the local community
  • reduce traffic congestion

We can visit your school to help you develop your school travel plan. 

To plan a visit or ask a question, email highways@southwark.gov.uk
