Councillor Mark Coker, cabinet member for transport, said the authority did not receive any money from speeding fines.
He said safety, especially for local children, was the main priority of the scheme.
"We have decided that the safety of children travelling to and from school has to our number one focus," he said.
"None of the negative arguments in the consultation were more important than the safety of our youngest residents."
