HERNE HILL NEWS

HERNE HILL RESURFACING

Following the very well-supported petition organised by two residents on the street called Herne Hill, Lambeth Council agreed to resurface this busy road from Kestrel Avenue to the junction of Herne Hill Road / Red Post Hill in 2007. Further representations, and support from Councillors on both sides of the road, achieved the result of bringing the resurfacing forward a year: the great news is that work starts on Sep 4th (not Aug 23rd as shown on the yellow signs).

The Herne Hill street Audit, originally requested by the Chair of Herne Hill Forum, and carried out by Southwark, identified pavement deficiencies on the Southwark side. As a result, the stretch between Elfindale Road and Holmdene Avenue was relaid this week; next week its the turn of the section outside the Herne Hill (Carlton) Parade of shops, between Elfindale and Frankfurt Roads.

All the above works will greatly improve this area and we are grateful to both Lambeth and Southwark Councils for their efforts.

The next development will be the vehicle activated speed sign on Herne Hill close to Ruskin Walk: implementation has been delayed and we will advise as soon as we have a firm date.
