With the support of Eltham South activists, a petition will be presented to Greenwich Council calling for new safety measures to be implemented in Court Road.  Current measures do not seem to have reduced the number of accidents, many of which seem to be caused by speeding.

I was deeply disappointed that our petition for improved road safety measures in Montbelle Road amounted to nothing at last night's Council meeting.  The group of residents I invited along were left puzzled and bemused by the manner in which the issue was (not) discussed and now we've been told we must take the battle to Transport for London.  I have, today, written to TfL asking for an urgent site visit and will keep residents informed.  However, I was delighted that common sense has prevailed in Green Lane where proposals for cycle routes and decreased-on street parking have been thrown out.  Though the new proposals need further work, it is good to see that, sometimes, residents are listened to.
