Hoole bridge closure and a new zebra crossing

On February 11th the Hoole Bridge will be closed for 12 weeks due to essential repairs. It is expected that this will cause severe disruption to Chester traffic. For full details of the closure and a map showing the diversion routes please follow the following link. This map has been distributed to parents.

We have been asked by the council to put out parking cones along Newton lane in front of the school since it is expected that there will be a large amount of diverted traffic along the road outside the school. Parents are asked, as always, to park at St. Columba’s and walk down to the school.

The good news is that there will be a new zebra crossing and widened pavement on the corner of Wealstone lane and Newton lane to make the walk from St. Columba’s easier. Work is progressing well and the workmen on site believe they will be finished by the time the school restarts after half-term.

Have a good half-term holiday!
