This week covering such topics as:
Access and Safety
Purley kink on Russel hill road is now not being actioned. Despite Purley BID lobbying over the past 4 years to get the corner handed over to TFL so they can straighten the kink, TFL are now saying they will not straighten the kink. This is hugely disappointing, it was one of the key factors the BID were raining in the support of the Mosaic place development. We got the land reallocated and now TFL are not committing to the project.
This is the perfect opportunity to straighten the kink and we will be taking this further.
