Parents' fears of Orange plan for phone mast near two Bristol schools
Sunday, December 07, 2008, 18:13
Parents reacted with disbelief that telecommunications giant Orange applied to put up a phone mast in Bristol without consulting two nearby schools.
Orange claimed there were no schools within 250m of the proposed site of the 11.8m-high mast in Redland in its planning application to Bristol City Council.
But both Bristol Steiner School and Torwood House Junior School are within 150m of it.
Staff and parents of children at the schools say they were not informed of the proposal and believe the mast could affect pupils' health.
Orange wants to put a lamppost phone mast on the corner of Redland Hill and Durdham Park to improve its network coverage in the Clifton area following the loss of its mast on the Natwest building in Whiteladies Road.
Joel Moreland's six-year-old son Zach goes to Bristol Steiner School, which has 120 pupils aged six to 16 in Redland Hill. He also has a daughter at the school's kindergarten in Cotham.
