Cavendish Road Update
Update - April 2017
On 3 April 2017, we published our report on the Quietway 5 Waterloo to Norbury (Cavendish Road) consultation.
Unfortunately, there were some errors in the section reporting the views of the stakeholders who responded to the consultation. We apologise for this, and are pleased to republish the report below.
The revised report correctly states that Lambeth Cyclists did not support the proposals. We have also included a response from the Natal Road Residents’ Association, and updated entries for Alma Consulting Group and Wheels for Wellbeing.
Update - March 2017
Having considered all responses to the consultation and reviewed the proposals, the scheme has been amended to incorporate additional measures in response to certain concerns raised by respondents.
The main changes include:
- raising of the existing zebra crossing on Cavendish Road directly to the south of the junction with Atkins Road
- installation of a raised table with informal crossing points on Cavendish Road directly to the south of the junction with Weir Road
- installation of a raised table to cover the junction of Sistova Road with Cavendish Road. To be extended in a southerly direction on Cavendish Road to also incorporate the raising of the existing zebra crossing on Cavendish Road directly to the north of Hydethorpe Road.
The council recommendation is to proceed with the implementation of the revised scheme, subject to detailed design and statutory consultation. Construction is planned to begin in summer 2017, and Lambeth Council will write to local residents and businesses with details of the planned works.
