A Romford School Street has been labelled a success by councillors, with reviews of the schemes en-masse hinted at.

School streets schemes covering four schools in Havering and Romford - Branfil Primary, Hylands Primary and Squirrels Heath schools - have been made permanent.

A vote on making three school street schemes permanent in Havering was deferred after consultation responses from as far away as Newham featured in a report.

Globe Road in Hornchurch is "absolute chaos" and an "accident waiting to happen" since a Hylands School was built nearby, according to its neighbours.
