Children in Celbridge staged a protest this morning in relation to a safe to road safety concerns.
Students at St. Patrick's Primary School in Celbridge held the protest at the junction of the Hazelhatch Rd. and Willow Avenue this morning during rush-hour traffic.
Protestors say there is no safe walking route to the school.
A designated pedestrian gate at the school was conditioned in the original planning permission by Kildare County Council and is deemed the only safe access point to the school.
However, the gate remains closed.
