Schools
Some early school projects were fairly minor, but many of the more recent ones are quite ambitious with 24/7 road closures. We wonder if easier ones were tackled earlier, or if the Council gained confidence as experience built up!
Note – primary schools are listed in alphabetic order, except where the Council held combined consultations.
