North Inch - Park and Stride
Park and Stride simply means driving some of the way to school,
parking and walking the rest of the way.
When it is not possible to walk all the way to school Park and
Stride offers a number of key benefits for children and young
people on their journey to school:
- To reduce vehicle congestion on the roads around the campus and
so improve road safety.
- To allow children an opportunity to develop essential road
skills.
- To promote active travel and increased exercise levels.
- To help reduce pollution levels.
- To link with other school based initiatives such as
Eco-Schools, Health Promoting Schools and the Campus Travel
Plan.
- To provide opportunities to work with the local community in
setting up and monitoring the scheme.
