The Government of Navarra and the Town Hall of Roncal have presented the result of five months of works: concrete wall to protect the pedestrian way of road cars, wider sidewalk, railways in the area of the river bank, road marks and renewed signs… The representative of the Government of Navarra has pointed out that it is essential to make possible the adequate road infrastructure to “guarantee access to basic services”, and the school is without doubt.

Access to this basic service, as well as the state of access roads and streets, is not often safe in our cities and towns dominated by roads and cars. Recently there was a complaint from the parents of the Atxuri school in Bilbao, which, in addition to emphasizing that Bilbao is a strange city for children, denounced the contamination and insecurity suffered by the school environment. At Atxuri, they would be happy to launch the project that boys and girls go to school walking and alone with their peers and peers, “because it is a very nice experience that has a direct impact on the development and relationships of boys and girls”, but to make possible something like this, first of all, “we see it necessary for the city to put several guarantees. Right now, crossing the zebra crossing in green is a danger to us.”

Group boys and girls in more and more towns

Schools in more and more towns and cities are launching initiatives to promote self-care for students. As we explained in the article that we published about this, in these initiatives it is usually the first step to agree a safe and planned itinerary, and if one of the consequences is reading streets and neighborhoods with those eyes, if putting on the children's skin serves to influence urbanism and start building more livable places, there is something.
