Proposed Westcombe Park and Maze Hill Area Low Traffic Neighbourhood
The Royal Borough of Greenwich is proposing to introduce a low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) that will place closures - modal filters - on Maze Hill, Vanbrugh Hill, Halstow Road and Westcombe Hill either at peak times or at all times, 24/7, limiting access to emergency services, taxis and those travelling on foot, bicycle, wheeling or bus. You can express your views in the SURVEY, which is open until 8 March 2021.
GUERRILLA GARDENING
The idea of adopting and improving strips of land which have been neglected for a long time has caught on and we now have 5 such strips which locals ( hopefully all members of the Greenwich Society!) are working on. If you have a strip of land which you would like to improve could you let us know. We would seek to provide some additional manpower and there is the possibility of obtaining plants and wild flower turf without charge. If you would like to become involved drop Tim Barnes an e-mail at tim@ttbarnes.com
