The Temporary Bus Shelter at Corner of Carshalton Road with Shorts Road

Following an exchange of correspondence between the developers and Sutton Council, a temporary bus shelter has been formed by the developer’s contractors at 229-245 Carshalton Road immediately underneath the temporary scaffolding, at the junction with Shorts Road. This will provide more room for school children who gather there waiting for a bus in large numbers in the afternoons.

Cllr. Jill Whitehead says: “We have also heard that the developer has very recently made an application to the Council to temporarily close off Shorts Road at the junction with Carshalton Road to traffic for two distinct periods of two weeks and eight weeks respectively in order to carry out certain parts of the approved flats scheme.  We are investigating the details at present  and will keep you posted and keep local residents informed.”
