The full 10-week closure of Wandsworth Bridge by Wandsworth Council will be very concerning for Fulham and Chelsea residents.
Greg has written to Wandsworth Council about the closure, TfL about changes to bus routes and launched a petition to Save South Fulham Businesses.
Last Friday, I presented my petition to Save the North End Road Post Office to the Post Office. I would like to thank all those who took the time to add their signature to this important petition. I continue to urge the Post Office to fulfil the pledge they made in 2003 to keep a major branch on or just off the North End Road. It would be devastating for local residents if no alternative location could be found for this Post Office branch.
Last weekend, I was able to catch-up with hard-working, local business owners along the Wandsworth Bridge Road. It was worrying to hear about their thoughts on Labour H&F Council's ill thought-through traffic scheme, and how it is currently negatively impacting their businesses. Transport for London (TfL) have finally published their plans for our local bus routes during the upcoming full closure of Wandsworth Bridge. Buses will stop either side of the bridge and passengers are being asked to walk across the one-way walkways.
