  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 19 December 2012
Lewisham Cyclists have been calling for the Trundley's Road/Surrey Canal Road junction to be made safer for both cyclists and pedestrians without success.

Junction of Ruckholt Road and Eastway (4)

  • Reference: 2012/4020

Junction of Ruckholt Road and Eastway (2)

  • Reference: 2012/4018
  • Question by: Darren Johnson

In your response to Question No. 2469/2012 you state that 'one of the Stage 2 safety audits was for additional measures that were not implemented'. Will you review the procedures for safety audits to ensure that nothing slips between the gaps when on-site visits are looking at actual measures which have been put in place?

  • Reference: 2012/4017
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 19 December 2012
Will you urge TfL, as part of its ongoing junction review, to urgently re-design the junction of Ruckholt Road and Eastway, so that cyclists and pedestrians are not so endangered by construction lorries gaining access to the Olympic Park?

  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 19 December 2012

Given this was launched several years ago, will you ask TfL to step up its work in this area and do more to promote public awareness of considerate travel?
