School Exclusion Zones (SEZ)

Fife Council has introduced a “School Exclusion Zone” (SEZ) at a few trial locations in Fife.

A School Exclusion Zone (also known as a School Street) is to prevent non-residential traffic from using the road network outside a school entrance gate, and / or in surrounding streets, at set periods of the school day – typically during start and finish times.  The restriction is a motor vehicles' prohibition (pedestrian and cycle zone) that would only be operational when lights are activated on the entry sign.

These have been introduced to encourage more active travel to school, and to improve road safety in the area immediately outside the school.
