Patience? This badly designed crossing is a long running issue.

Quote:
Forest Hill Urban Design Framework and Development Strategy proposed significant changes to this junction in 2003 (see p33) - (NewForester)

The idea was to:

• Improve links for the Station to Horniman Museum and Library/Pools,
• Address severance caused by the South Circular (and the railway line),
• Generally improve the pedestrian environment and accessibility,

Unfortunately TFL is one of Boris' playthings and his aim is to keep the traffic flowing as priority No 1 - all other considerations secondary.
(Huzzah! shout the SE23 motoring club members.)

There is every reason to think that what tfl are likely to propose for this junction (if anything) will not address any of the aims of the framework.
