When I was visiting Hearsall Common I noticed a young student trying to rush across the road narrowly missing an oncoming car, in order to catch the number 12 bus at the row of bus stops. I thought to myself that a pelican crossing was urgently needed in the area for the public safety of all local residents. It seems to me that two pelican crossings are required, one at Hearsall Common opposite the row of bus stops and the other on Earlsdon Avenue North alongside the junction with Hearsall Lane. I also understand from local resident and Councillor Lynette Kelly that a bus from Bishop Ullathorne School drops children off at the location in the evening. In order to avoid a possible tragic incident, I believe that we should lobby the council to install the pelican crossings. If you feel something should be done too, please fill in the online petition at the following link. Many Thanks.
