Slow down - the sign in Parkeston Road warning drivers to reduce their speed CONCERNS have been raised over the “unsafe way schoolchildren are expected to cross a road”, but a council has promised a zebra crossing will be installed. Chris Tye, the local authority governor at Spring Meadow Primary School, in Dovercourt, is calling on Essex County Council to provide a crossing guard so youngsters can safely cross Parkeston Road. The school has been without a crossing guard for several weeks as the person employed to carry out the duty has been unwell, Mr Tye said. He said his calls to Essex County Council asking for a temporary crossing patrol have fallen on deaf ears.
