The local 853 blog has an an article on the sudden closure by Greenwich Council of the foot tunnel to the Isle of Dogs.
The blog quotes Caroline Pidgeon's letter expressing her concern to the leader of Greenwich Council:
The foot tunnel is an absolutely key component in the London cycle and pedestrian network… the closure of the tunnel has a significant effect on people’s ability to cross the river.
Many people are angry that the tunnel has been closed with no warning because this often compels people to use more dangerous routes, such as the Rotherhithe Tunnel, and gives people no time or warning to plan alternative, safer routes to their destination.
Caroline also told the East London Advertiser:
Sadly [Greenwich Council's] recent record in keeping people informed about the opening hours of the tunnel has reached new depths of incompetence.
To suddenly close such an important route without proper publicity simply shows a total disregard for the many pedestrians and cyclists who rely on this vital link.
You can also read more about the issue on the Snipe London news website.
Also, in a follow-up article, the 853 blog reports on further delays which mean the tunnel will not reopen until June - you can read Caroline's statement here.
