Scooter parking installed

Scooter parking installed

About this activity

Suitable for primary and secondary schools.

Install scooter parking to encourage your pupils and colleagues to scoot to school rather than take the car. This can help reduce congestion and improve road safety and air quality around the school gates.

Speak to your borough officer for ideas on obtaining funding for scooter parking.

Please note: you can only mark this activity as complete once the scooter parking is installed.

  • Record the feedback from your pupils, their parents/carers and colleagues. Keep a track of how your new parking facilities are used
