Cllrs. Alan Salter, Jill Whitehead and Hamish Pollock have followed up the recent proposals for the pedestrian crossing facility at the busy Ruskin Road/Park Lane junction.

We’ve been told that funding for work this will be released after 1st April 2013. The next phase will be the detailed design of the signals by Transport for London (TfL) and their consultants.  Depending on their programme and activities, which includes the wider London, normally about June/July the Council receives their detailed design drawings and the specification. Based on these items of information the Council will need to finalise the drawings for the road works before starting on site. At the moment, the Council officers have programmed the work to commence in August 2013 with the intention to complete by September. As residents mayappreciate, the timing is very much depends on TfL’s design work and their signalling contractor to install them.
