Walking the dog the other day, and a thought crossed my mind.
On one side of the railway lines you have a barely used car park, which serves very little. Not even the parent dropping their kids to school at local Christchurch Primary can walk THAT far.
On the other side of the lines you have Dartmouth Road, slowly slowly falling off the radar for local traders, businesses coming and going. With of course a few remaining and working out.
So..... maybe a foot bridge over to the other side of the lines? Connecting both sides of Forest Hill, conviniently etc. Giving local shop keepers somewhere to direct people to park to use their shops, and giving FH a boost?
Surely that would help commuters too?
I know there is the subway, but we all know how vunerable people feel in these things, and its hardly disabled friendly either.
Thoughts?
