Bowes Road Wivenhoe

Millfields Primary School

In 2023, engagement with Millfields Primary School, parents and local residents identified key priorities for change on Bowes Road, including safer crossings, improved pavement quality, and improved enforcement. On 24 October 2024, an engagement event took place with parents outside the school gates and with residents at Loveless Hall, where printed design plans were presented and proposals discussed prior to the Traffic Regulation Order consultation. Feedback focused on the zebra crossing, red routes, and signage, and has been used to refine the scheme.

Scheme Details

• New zebra crossing introduced in the vicinity of the school

• Red route restrictions (8:15–9:15am, 2:45–3:45pm )

• Footway Resurfacing

• Child crossing road markings
