Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Round 3 schools list

List of schools by Local Authority and School Name

An additional 141 schools across the country will benefit

An additional 141 schools across the country will benefit from Round 3 of the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programme.

This latest phase will extend the popular ‘School Zone’ improvements to more schools across the country, using recognisable design features, such as pencil shaped bollards, colourful road markings, improved footpaths and pedestrian crossings to highlight the presence of the school and encourage traffic to slow down and increase active travel among students.

Schools on Higher Speed Rural Roads (HSRR) will be included

For the first time, schools on Higher Speed Rural Roads (HSRR) will be included in the programme with 67 of the 141 in Round 3 being in this category. The design approach at these schools will be different to the standard ‘School Zone’ approach with the focus being on alerting motorists to the presence of schools and encouraging lower speeds and more attentive driving. This will be achieved through signage and road markings at the front of the school.

Additional information about the SRTS Programme

The Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Programme was developed in partnership by the NTA and Green-Schools, An Taisce, in 2020, as a response to the need to support schools to increase walking and cycling to school.

Aims of the SRTS Programme:
  • Improve safety at the school gate by providing ‘front of school’ treatments to alleviate congestion and improve access;
  • Improve access routes to school by improving walking and cycling infrastructure; and
  • Increase the number of students who cycle to school by expanding the amount of cycle parking
