Final Chance to Give Your Views on Carnwath Road Crossings
Consultation on zebra crossing proposals near Tideway Tunnel site closes on Thursday
Residents in South Fulham have a last chance to give their views on proposals to add two temporary zebra crossings in Carnwath Road, next to the Tideway Tunnel construction site.
The footpath next to the construction site has been closed during the works and two informal raised crossings have been built.
However, H&F Council says that following comments from nearby residents saying they would feel safer with zebra crossings, it is working with residents to see if pedestrian safety can be improved.
If people are in favour following the results of the consultation, the temporary zebra crossings would replace the two raised crossings.
The new crossings would have the added benefit of being more clearly identifiable to road users as pedestrian crossings.
Although Carnwath Road is not a main road, it has high volumes of traffic during the rush hour.
The consultation, a road safety audit and construction of any crossings would be funded entirely by Thames Tideway, who will also be reinstating the footway once the works have been completed.
Consultation documents have been sent to local residents and businesses, and residents have also been invited to comment via the online consultation.
Now residents are being reminded that the consultation closes on Thursday 14 September, so now the last chance to speak up.
The consultation can be found here.
If you would like further information or would like to discuss the proposals in more detail, please contact: Stephen Daway 020 8753 2954 or Elise Lim on 0208 753 3124.
