Mitcham Road SW17 - Outside Smith Bros.

TMO 867 - Received 14/03/07

The Council wish to alter the current arrangement of loading bays to make way for a new bus stop bay. The existing bay nearest Franciscan Road will be made shorter, then the new bus stop will be introduced, with a new loading bay extending right up to the zig-zags of the pedestrian crossing near Vant Road. The hours of operation of the loading bays will not change (10-4 M-S for 30 min.).

These changes do not significantly change the complex nature of this road. We do not propose to object to this TMO, but will campaign for a 20 mph zone in this area.

Deadline for responses 10 April 2007

  1. I use this route often and do not see a problem but totally agree with the 20mph speed zone idea. It is a bit of a rat run for people travelling from the high street and is also full of pedestrians as well as cyclists.

  2. WCC response sent to Wandsworth Council on 17 April 2007.
    No objections.
    This consultation is now closed.

    We will campaign for more space for pedestrians and cyclists and for a 20 mph speed limit on this and all the shopping streets in the Borough.
