The Council is proposing to introduce road safety improvements on West Grove.
We are proposing to install traffic calming in the form of speed humps on West Grove as shown on the attached plan. We are intending to install approximately 80mm (3.5 inch) high speed humps on this road with a shallow initial rise which is more beneficial for cyclists.
The Metropolitan Police, London Fire Brigade, London Ambulance Services and Transport for London are being consulted on the proposals.
Why make changes?
The main objective of the proposed scheme is to make this area safer for all road users. The road safety measures will help reduce vehicular speeds, improve driver awareness, improve crossing conditions for pedestrians and improve road safety in the area.
Lowering traffic speeds also makes our streets less polluted, and better and safer places to walk and cycle.
Traffic surveys undertaken on West Grove have demonstrated that vehicle speeds are often in excess of the speed limit, the below table shows the data the Council has received from its surveys:
