Maidstone Road/Pattens Lane pedestrian access and road safety

We the undersigned petition the council to Install a pedestrian crossing system at the Maidstone Road/Pattens Lane/Walderslade Road cross roads in Chatham. As there are already traffic lights at this junction it would improve safety for the children and parents, and any other resident, to have pedestrian crossing included in this current system.

Currently anyone crossing Walderslade Road or Maidstone Road to access the church or the local schools, have to do so in unsafe conditions. Due to the services that are being accessed, very young children are put at risk while having to cross the roads at short intervals when the traffic lights change. It is also unclear to pedestrians which flow of traffic is coming through the lights and difficult to navigate across the road which pushchairs and young children on foot.
