Tuam Students Demand Safer Road Conditions and Access to Sports Facilities

As concerned parents and students of Tuam Educate Together National School, we are writing to bring attention to several road safety concerns that affect our daily commute to school and our children’s safety while at school. 
We respectfully request that consideration be given to the following proposals to improve road safety for students in Tuam: 
Grant access to the adjacent Sports Pitches and Sports Hall for students from Tuam Educate Together National School.
Install speed bumps on Dublin Road, Athenry Road, and Frank Stockwell Road to reduce traffic speeds and promote a safer walking environment for students. This will ensure that students can walk safely to and from school, regardless of the road conditions.
Install illuminated speed signs on these roads with clear signage indicating the recommended speed limit in the town (30 km/hr) to educate drivers about the need for reduced speeds and promote a culture of safety. 
Employ a School Warden to provide support for students crossing Dublin Road near the Old Courthouse, ensuring their safe passage during morning, afternoon, and daytime hours. 
Make provision for parking along these three routes to ensure safe drop off and collections for students and their families every morning and evening, in particular adequate spaces for people with disabilities to park.
We appeal to the Minister for Transport Darragh O’Brien, An Taisce, the RSA and the Department of Transport to prioritise Tuam Schools in their Safer Routes to School programme to ensure that students in Tuam can access their schools safely.
We ask that Galway County Council expedite their Tuam Active Travel Scheme so that construction begins this year on the Dublin Road to ensure students will be able to travel safely to and from school.
We believe that these measures will significantly improve road safety for students in Tuam and contribute to creating a more harmonious and pedestrian-friendly community and enable safe and convenient transportation of students before and after school.
We would be grateful if you could consider our proposals and take steps to address these concerns.
