Overview

We would like your views on highways improvements on Wood Vale. 

Residents have told us that they would like to see reduced speeds and less through traffic on Wood Vale so we have put together a proposal to tackle these issues that we would now like your feedback on.  We would especially like to know if you think the designs could be improved or if we have missed any opportunities.

The measures will include:

• New raised tables (Flat topped speed humps) - these encourage drivers to slow down and maintain a constant speed.
• Removing existing speed cushions and islands - these were not effective enough at reducing speeds, and presented dangers to cyclists.
• Introducing a new priority working system - this allows only one vehicle through at a time and aims to discourage vehicles using Wood Vale to access Lordship Lane and the South Circular Road.

As part of these works we will also be taking the opportunity to refurbish the footway along the road where it is needed.

Separately from this consultation, please note that Melford Road carriageway resurfacing has been reprogrammed for the 16th of January. Separate notification will be issued for this work closer to the scheduled implementation date.

Let us know what you think by filling in the online survey. Drawings can be viewed in the additional documents section.
