Local Traffic Problems

Public Meeting

Thursday   8 September 7pm  Southwark Council Offices  Tooley St


Local traffic and its impact on air quality have long been a concern to many local businesses and residents.  As the London Bridge redevelopment work changes focus from St Thomas St to the south of the railway line to Tooley St to the North these issues will again be highlighted.  Grange Ward councillor Damian O’Brien and others have been working hard over the past few months to bring the various bodies who dictate traffic management issues together before a public meeting in an attempt to find some strategy for improving the present deeply unsatisfactory situation.  Below is his invitation to all to attend.  We are pleased to relay this invitation and would urge anyone concerned with the current situation to try and attend.

Subject: Invitation to have your say about traffic planning in your area

Hello

Transport and traffic flow issues around Bermondsey and London Bridge have been the cause of much discussion over the years. Residents and community groups often feel that all the different agencies operate in isolation to each other.

I am arranging a meeting to bring together all the interested parties. The specific objective is to agree how to create a traffic management plan for the area between Tooley Street, Borough High Street, Great Dover Street and Tower Bridge Road (if the group feel this is the right boundary).

Transport for London, Network Rail, Southwark Council, Team London Bridge and Guy’s Hospital have already confirmed their attendance and will give a short presentation to the audience whose input will be critical.

With this in mind, I would like to invite you to attend. Please bring along anyone else who you think would be interested in local transport issues. I hope as many interested groups in the area as possible, including schools and community groups, come along and have their say.

7-9pm

A quick RSVP back to me would be helpful for planning purposes.

Hopefully we’ll see you on the 8th.

Kind regards,

Chaucer Safer Neighbourhood Police Team – Post EU Referendum

Dear Members Working and Living in the Chaucer Ward,

Post Referendum Key Messages

We are aware that significant events at home or abroad can increase intolerance, hate or extremism

We have come together as part of the national #westandtogether campaign and have shown that all communities stand united against all hate and intolerance

Hate crime and extremism is usually perpetrated by a small minority people who try to divide communities but this has no effect where strong community cohesion exists

Dedicated Ward Officers are familiar and well known figures in local neighbourhoods – we provide reassurance and support and work hard to develop strong relationships with our local communities. Please contact us and we will be pleased to hear from you and provide any help that we can

Our community engagement plans will ensure we work closely with local communities to understand how they are feeling; focus our resources at times and in locations where our communities needs us the most and use all MPS resources to provide a visible policing presence across London

Hate crime is not acceptable and will not be tolerated. Please report all incidents hate crime, no matter how small, as soon as possible. We have 900 specialist detectives whose role it is to catch offenders and bring them to justice. Please report all hate crime to 999 in an emergency, to 101 in a non-emergency or directly to an officer or at a police station

If you have any concerns, no matter how small, then please contact your local neighbourhood teams. If you have information to offer please telephone 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111

Since the UK EU Referendum there has been no reported increase in Hate Crime or incidents in London. We do however remain highly aware that certain events can spur intolerance, hate or extremism. We would appeal to anyone who witnesses or suffers any hate of any type to immediately report it to us so that we can quickly take action and catch those who are responsible.

Regards,

PC Sarah Bull
