Work will soon begin on the long-awaited upgrade of the pedestrian crossing outside a Hastings school.

Parents, school staff, residents and local councillors Michael Wincott and Richard Street have been campaigning for the upgrade outside Sandown School, at The Ridge, ever since the lollipop person was removed from the zebra crossing.

Confirmation was received last autumn but work was held back until the school closed for the summer break to minimise disruption to traffic. Work is due to begin on July 24 and is expected to take six weeks.
