The proposals for bus priority on Streatham Common North are fixing the wrong problems in the wrong places.
- fewer crossings when we need more
- even worse cycling infrastructure
- nothing for the bottleneck junction with the A23
Streatham High Road is where bus priority is needed. It takes 25 minutes to go the couple of miles to Brixton and is relied upon by everyone.
Hope that @lambeth_council and @TfL will review these plans and deliver the promised improvements for bus users on the A23.
Hi @RedwingCoaches - one of your coaches mounted the pavement and destroyed a bollard while lots of children were walking to school on Valley Road this morning. This is dangerous driving on a street with weight restrictions.

Had a very productive meeting with Tfl this morning re the Streatham Hill / A23 cycle lanes / new crossings / bus stops.
Contrary to the misinformation some are sharing, the bus stops, crossings & protected cycle lanes WILL BE INCLUSIVE & ACCESSIBLE.
Including for VI folk.

I went to the TfL / Lambeth exhibition of plans for the new cycle lanes on Streatham High Road. It looks great.
When I arrived there were lots of drivers chanting “better things aren’t possible” & “let’s never improve anything.”
Construction starts in 6 weeks, can’t wait.

We are dismayed our LTN is to be removed given the multiple community benefits and wide spread support 😔
We ask Lambeth council to reintroduce it after consulting on a permanent traffic order 💚

We would like to offer HUGE thanks to everyone who has supported us so far. If you have not done so, there is still time to comment on the change of use. If you have problems with the Lambeth portal, you can send an email. All the information here - streathamhilltheatre.org/cam…

Lower Marsh in Waterloo. Pedestrianised and clearly with very chill licensing laws. Even the greengrocer has people on tables outside drinking wine! More of this! A more fun world is possible!

Giving children some space back, denied to them by the phenomenal rise of motor vehicles 💚

Something strange has appeared on Valley Road: a zebra crossing… that no one can officially explain.
No @lambeth_council signs. No announcement. Just fresh paint.
No one seems to know who did it. But many say: “It should’ve been done a long time ago.”

The mystery zebra crossing on Valley Road feels like more than a prank.
It feels like a message: “We want safety. We want our streets back. And if you won’t protect us, maybe we’ll protect each other.”
