Winchester MP Steve Brine.
Winchester MP Steve Brine has been named Road Safety Parliamentarian of the Month by road safety charity Brake for his campaigning over pedestrian crossings.
Mr Brine began a campaign in the city for a crossing on Andover Road outside Osborne School in early 2012 after pupils and staff raised concerns.
The traffic-light controlled puffin crossing was recently installed.
He has also successfully pressed for crossings on St Cross Road and recently launched a new one on Worthy Road.
Mr Brine said: “As a keen cyclist and parent of two little ones I am constantly aware of the importance of road safety and am delighted that my work in this area has been recognised by Brake.”
