Caroline has presented to Boris Johnson a petition supported by 620 Lewisham residents demanding a pedestrian crossing at the junction of Courthill Road and Lewisham High Street. The petition was organised by Lewisham Central Councillors, Dave Edgerton and Andrew Milton.
TfL have consistently refused to introduce a pedestrian crossing despite repeated requests from residents and local councillors. The junction is widely recognised as unsafe for pedestrians and as recently as 29th April there was a serious pedestrian accident where a pedestrian was struck by a lorry.
The News Shopper has also covered the petition here.
