Buildbase is a flagship store for small businesses and DIY people and one of the few left in this part of London. The Council's borough plans are for redevelopment of the site on both sides of Blackpool Road. This would mean the end of that store there.


The plans are coming up at the Public Hearings of the New Southwark Plan in the summer. If you have a view on the future of Blackpool Road or any other part of that area you will be welcome at the community meeting on Wednesday 4th March 7-8pm refreshments from 6.30pm at Peckham Palms in Bournemouth Close (between the Atwell Estate and Rye Lane, opposite Choumert Road).


We will give an update on the plans and the Public hearings at the meeting, and gather views of those present that we can add to our collection of local views to present to the Inspectors at the Hearing.

      Okay Earl, of those 'consulted' how many voices were in favour of the junction and how many against? Were there more responses in favour or more against? This local junction change is being driven by Southwark Labour Councillors- not as you assert by Central Govt. Also, if consultations are so irrelevant as indicators of meaningful local support in the way you seem to imply, why do organisations like Southwark Cyclists constantly ask their members to respond to all and any consultation on LTN's and CPZ's?

      You could apply the same argument to any kind of penalty as an effective deterrent.  Better than doing nothing.

      Check the link I provided above. It’s gives a very full account of where the push for LTNs came from, (in brief, central government). The consultation did not show that the majority of local residents were against the LTN. Not for the first time, you’ve confused a ‘consultation’ with a ‘referendum’. The outcome of local elections (which many opposed to LTNs excitedly promoted as a referendum on the scheme), suggested they are actually quite popular. All the polling on LTNs generally, also shows majority support across London.

      Rockets said: "Perhaps you should be asking who is lobbying the council to close the junction or parts of it or why the council is happy to waste so much of our money on it - who are they representing as even their own consultation demonstrated they did not have support from the local community for the measures? The results showed the majority of local residents were against the measure...but they are going ahead with them anyway" This.
