It was exciting to see that work has FINALLY started on the dangerous junction on Woolstone Road where it is crossed by the traffic from Cranston Road and Houston Road. It has always been a difficult and potentially dangerous crossing for pedestrians and cyclists, in particular because it is so close to Kilmorie School.
However, after YEARS of campaigning by local residents, including a petition you may well have signed, and with the support of the Forest Hill Society and from local councillors, Lewisham Council has started work to improve the junction.
The plan is to narrow the road sections to slow cars and make it easier to cross. It will also include adding rain gardens to help soak up local rainfall and make the area greener. Finally, there will also be a pedestrian crossing installed just up Woolstone Road itself.
