Home Zone
April 15, 2014 Leave a comment
This is a quietened street in Grimsby, near the junction of Victor St and Oxford St, and it represents a step forward! It’s signed as a ‘Home Zone’ street, where children can play, where car access is restricted and slowed and where residents generally enjoy a more community-based environment.
It would be even better if there was no through access for vehicles. For instance, a row of bollards placed mid-way would enable cycling and walking through but would prevent cars and vans from making it a short-cut.
It’s a creditable initiative and one that should be replicated on more residential streets.
