Southwark consultation on extension of North Cross Road Market (on Saturdays)

[Siduhe]

I just came across this on the Southwark site whilst looking for something else - can't see an existing thread.

The online survey closes at the end of Jan:

The North Cross Road market is becoming more popular and businesses in the area are growing with more visitors as well as local people using it as their shopping area.

We want to support this growth by:

Extending the market

Having a permanent road closure in place every Saturday from Lordship Lane to Archdale Road

Creating a turning space at the end of Nuffield Road

Please see the map and frequently asked questions in the Related section below for more information about the proposals.

These proposals will see an increase in the number of trading pitches and add more variety to the shopping experience, including community and entertainment stalls.

We believe the proposed changes will raise the ambience, provide a solution to some of the congestion experienced throughout the market day and address the safety issues that have arisen due to cars crossing the market area.

Thanks for that - it's annoying that people living nearby haven't been notified of this consultation.
