Hook Road / Elm Road junction

Yesterday I had a meeting with road engineers from Transport for London and Kingston Council, about improvements to the Hook Road/Elm Road junction.

We have been trying to get TfL to do something about this dangerous spot for years, but I'm afraid it has taken a fatal accident to get any action.

TfL have now carried out a feasibility study and have come up with some very promising designs. Next they have to get funding for a full design, and then they have to bid for funds to implement it. At some stage there will, of course, be consultation with the Neighbourhood and with people who live nearby about the preferred layout.

It's all going to take some time, but at least it looks as though we are making progress.
