The solution?

At every "T" junction where the upright of the "T" is
a road open at either end, close the road permanently
at the junction and give the end of the road, to a
distance of neighbouring houses + garden, to a local
school to fill the gap with affordable housing for their staff.


At every *other* one, surely!


Huh? There are two ends to every road that is open at two
ends, so I would suggest the most suitable end be chosen.


I suspect that crossroads are a lot more dangerous than T-junctions, so your
idea would work better if the T-junctions were left alone and the crossroads
were so altered.
