Introduction
To address speeding concerns, we are seeking to introduce speed humps which will assist in lowering traffic speeds along Crusoe Road and Friday Road.
The benefits of speed humps include improved road safety:
- Reduction of traffic speed
- Reduced risk of collisions
- Discourage through traffic
- Improved perception and road environment
Statutory consultation
A Notice of our intention to introduce the above measures will be published in a local newspaper (Wimbledon and Wandsworth Times) and posted on lamp columns within the vicinity. Representations against the proposals described in this Notice must be made in writing to Environment, Civic and Climate Department, Future Merton, Merton Civic Centre, London Road, Morden, Surrey, SM4 5DX or email trafficandhighways@merton.gov.uk by no later than 9 August 2024 quoting reference ES/RH/Friday-Crusoe 2024. Objections must relate only to the elements of the scheme that are subject to this statutory consultation.
What happens next
All representations along with Officers’ comments and recommendations will be presented in a report to the Cabinet Member for Transport. Please note that responses to any representations received will not be made until after the Cabinet Member has made a final decision.
Once a decision has been made, all residents will be advised of the outcome of the consultation via newsletter.
