I would be interested in more information on this. What's your aim beyond making one road quieter and more pleasant. Won't the effect be to make other places proportionately worse?


I have asked the Forest Hill Councillors and the Mayor of Lewisham to support a review of the traffic flow through Forest Hill as a whole, but it seems clear they support the status quo.

It is very difficult to find out how decisions like this are made and the reasons for previous decisions. For example, the No Entry to Manor Mount from Honor Oak Road - there is no information available from the Council. NOTHING AT ALL! No survey data, no impact assessment studies, no minutes of the meetings where the decision was taken. The same is true of all the No Through Roads, One Ways, and partial closures between Forest Hill and Honor Oak Park on the East side of the railway. You might think there would be records of surveys (technical surveys and resident surveys) but there is - so I am told - nothing available.

The system resembles freemasonry more than democratic accountability.
