Winstree Road and Villa Road

We recently undertook some engagement activities with the local school communities to help guide what measures should be implemented by the end of 2024. This is the second phase of healthy school street developments on Winstree Road. Phase 1 works can be found here.

We wanted to gather feedback from the school community including parents, pupils, residents, businesses and school staff as well as nearby streets around the area which encompasses four schools: Stanway Primary School, The Stanway School, Lexden Springs Residential Special School and Stanway Fiveways Primary School.

The latest measures to be explored include:

  • A zebra crossing on Villa Road.
  • Parking study to understand parking behaviours.
  • Park and Stride options. There is currently an agreement with Homebase which is less than 300m away from Stanway Primary, the Co-op and Stanway Parish Council are also set up and can aid in alleviating the vehicular pressure outside the school.
  • Creating and or continuing a School Travel Plan with our coordinator Nick Hill.
  • Active Travel Pledges. You can find links to the Primary and Secondary pledges here
  • Car Sharing.
  • Sustainable travel route maps.
  • Bikeability Training for pupils (please note Infant schools are not included). Please see the link on the right (laptop) and bottom (phone) to find out more.
  • Pedestrian Training Road Safety Course.
  • Educational Materials. (see attached and can you link to the Anti-idling campaign on the Air Quality website: What can I do? | Essex Air)
  • We are seeking to employ more Enforcement Officers to patrol school streets and enforce current restrictions and encourage considerate parking behaviours

Construction for a new Zebra Crossing for Villa Road is scheduled for construction during 15th – 23rd February 2025 during daytime working. Carriageway resurfacing works (including all associated new road markings for the Zebra Crossing) are currently programmed to commence the following week.

Priorities for future funding include a new footpath from The Stanway school to Villa Road and new restrictions e.g. double yellow lines or red routes at junctions.
