New 20mph speed zones are being created outside three Ripon schools in a bid to prevent accidents.
One of the Government's recently-approved low-speed areas will be outside Ripon Grammar School and its neighbour Ripon College, in Clotherholme Road.
The other will cover the newly-built Ripon Cathedral Church of England Primary School in Priest Lane.
The North Yorkshire County Council project has won support in principle from members of Ripon City Council.
County councillors proposed the new zones at the Ripon Grammar School and College following protests from parents and residents that pupils were being put at risk from vehicles in the early morning and afternoon peak times
