Petition: Safe Crossing for Hermitage Road

Join me in calling for a safe crossing for Hermitage Road

Hermitage Road is very busy with traffic during the rush hour. Many local parents have told me they are worried for children’s safety as they try to cross the road to get to their school. The road currently has several schools near or on it and yet no safe crossing on the entirety of the road.
I am asking Croydon’s Conservative Mayor and Croydon Council to install a pedestrian crossing on Hermitage Road so local people, including school children and people with certain disabilities, can cross the road in safety.
