New pedestrian crossings
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008 by superadminAs part of the Hale End Road Safety scheme (between the railway crossing and Wadham Bridge) – funded by Transport for London – various safety features such as built out kerbs and islands are now a feature. Particularly welcome to many local residents are the THREE new pedestrian crossings which are now in operation:
1] at the Hale End Road/Wadham Road junction
2] at this same junction on Wadham Bridge itself
3] part-way along Hale End Road near the junctions of Forest Mount Road on one side and Malvern Avenue on the other.
In addition to these measures, there has been re-surfacing and there are fresh markings.
It is hoped that all these measures will improve safety for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians - and that above all, there will be fewer problems with speeding traffic.
