1. the road is not safe for a primary school
2. no road signs or any sort of regulation to for safety of the children
3. dust that is produced is very unhealthy for the learners, employees of the school and residents

gravel road in bad condition

The road is just about the only in the area that isn't tarred. It is terrible for learners to go to school using that road in dry or wet conditions.

This is a problem concerning all parents and kids. This is becoming ridiculous of our kids being exposed to such conditions which is not a luxury but a necessity.

The road is in a terrible state and is not safe for learners and teachers, when it rains it is not safe to drop off a child at the gate as the road just becomes very muddy. On other normal days as the road is gravel and there was a building being built across the road, the trucks to load the material and driving on that road would cause lot of dust and that can be harmful to everyone who has to live in such conditions every day.
For a school there needs to be signs there and or road patrols to control and ensure the safety of the learners and the educators.

I have a child at NPS and drive daily on this road. The condition of the road is pathetic and the children's school clothes look terrible. My son is constantly suffering with sinus due to the dust.

My child attends NOORDWYK primary on 9th road. This road is a death trap. Perhaps government is waiting for a child to be killed before taking action

I feel our government waste money on things which are not important while they neglect important ones like this particular road which is to the benefit of the country. It is like they don't care until people start marching n causing disruptions.

I am signing this petition as a result of a failure from the JRA to tar the road

We have made numerous calls from 2015 for this road to be tard as a matter of urgency. This is a primary school to make this matter of great concern

I have logged a call with the JRA in 2015: 8002120900, I am shocked to say that to this date this road is still not been fixed

Maybe a child has to die before we can be listened to

We can't have children missing school and having their educational needs scuppered due to a bad road condition in this day and age. These children deserve better and it's our responsibility to ensure that. Therefore I plead with whoever is responsible for this unwarranted onslaught on our children to do the right thing and get this road fixed. Education is what we need to undo the past injustices.
