In response to Transport for London’s announcement that Bromley has been awarded a share of £53.4 million of funding from the Mayor’s Liveable Neighbourhoods programme, Londonwide Assembly Member, Fiona Twycross AM, said:
“It is positive that Bromley Council’s bid for this funding has been successful. This will help to transform and rejuvenate Shortlands, vastly improving the public space and providing much safer and easier routes for cyclists and pedestrians to navigate.
“Reducing car use in the community, wherever possible, plays a significant role in tackling air pollution and encouraging local people to adopt healthier lifestyles.
“For too long, our high streets, town centres and neighbourhoods have suffered from Government underinvestment, so City Hall’s work to turn the tide on the years of neglect is welcome”.
