Deirdre Costigan

Labour — Ealing Southall

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 April 2025

Debate

Road Safety and Active Travel to School

Contribution

Labour-run Ealing council has introduced 41 school streets across the borough, which has caused a 29% increase in children walking and cycling to school and taken one in five cars off the road in terms of school runs. Will the Minister look at that sort of evidence when she is coming to her road safety strategy, and will she consider visiting constituencies such as mine to see the success of Ealing Labour’s programme?
