Thanks for posting this StuartG.

Once again, Honor Oak is like the forgotten child. The way the consultation boundaries are drawn up are deeply flawed it seems.

Am not aware of a parking problem in any part of Crofton Park ward except near Honor Oak Park station. There has historically been a problem with this on both sides of the tracks near HOP but post-COVID/ULEZ expansion there is much less of an issue with parking. However, by consulting just East of the tracks, and assuming this gets approved, this will just result in all the park and ride going to the west (Forest Hill ward) side instead, thereby creating a problem all lined up for the next stage!

Meanwhile, there is this proposal, which seems most unimaginative and also seems to have in-built assumption that a CPZ will get approved.

What does happen, every weekday, is massive rat-running down Devonshire Road: car damage, pollution, unsociable behaviour and unsafe driving all stem from this. Some focus on LTN in this area is horrendously overdue, especially given that the area about to consulted on has already had them for decades. This would be tricky to solve but not insurmountable and way more productive than tinkering with CPZs and no clear objective.
