Ferndale Primary School, in Great Barr has become the first school in Sandwell to benefit from a 'School Street'.

‘School Streets’ is a nationally recognised project to promote sustainable transport and reduce the impact of school gate parking.

Due to the project's initiative, vehicle movement and parking on Ferndale Avenue is now restricted during morning and afternoon periods when children are going to and from school.
