Petition re improvements in Charlton has 185 signatures so far.
The stretch of the Woolwich Road between the Antigallican and Warspite Road is busy and fast-moving. For the majority of local residents that live on its southern side crossing the road can be treacherous.
The road also stands as a barrier to improved connectivity between Charlton and the river; connectivity that is essential if we’re to overcome the historic division between Charlton Village and Charlton Riverside in the years ahead.
The Royal Borough of Greenwich’s Charlton Masterplan contained a number of proposals to improve connectivity and safety in the area including enhancement of the Charlton Church Lane/Woolwich Road junction and pedestrian and cycling improvements to Anchor and Hope Lane.
I strongly believe that such a connection should take the form of a ‘green bridge’ that would provide a strong, safe and environmentally beneficial link from Charlton to the river.
Please support me in calling on the Royal Borough of Greenwich to do all it can to ensure that a green bridge linking Maryon Park and an enlarged Barrier Park is built as part of any future development in the area.
