Traffic calming issues in Red Post Post Hill
Dulwich Community Council agreed the following motion in response to the deputation presentation concerning wider traffic issues around Red Post Hill – particular with regard to the removal of double decker buses from the no 42 bus route which causes vibration to residents’ homes in that area.
AGREED:
DCC requests the relevant Cabinet member and/or officers to take all appropriate steps:
1. subject to official consultation with residents to secure removal of
(a) the cushions on Red Post Hill between its junctions with Casino Avenue and Herne Hill and their replacement with the minimum number of islands/build-outs to comply with regulations; and
(b) subject to resources and compliance with regulations, the set of cushions immediately to the south of the raised pedestrian crossing at the junction of Casino Avenue and Red Post Hill; and
2. to ascertain the intentions of Lambeth Council with regard to proposals, if any, for road closure or other measures on the north-west side of Denmark Hill/Herne Hill which might have an adverse effect on traffic flows in streets on the Southwark side of Denmark Hill/Herne Hill, and to make all necessary representations to Lambeth Council with a view to protecting the amenity of Southwark residents.
