Come and meet the team!

Over 900 of you have now visited the ‘Our Healthy Walworth’ Commonplace map, and we have hundreds of comments and ideas about ways we can address issues such as through traffic, air quality and road safety. There’s still plenty of time to add your comments and see what other people are saying – the map will be open until the end of December.

If you’d like to meet the team from Highways and discuss your ideas face-to-face, there’ll be a couple of opportunities in the next week.

  • We’ll be running a pop-up stall outside Morrison’s on Walworth Road this Friday afternoon (22nd November) – come and chat to us between 1pm and 5pm.
  • We’ll be holding a drop-in session at Nelson, Kingston and Portland Tenants Community Hall , Trafalgar House, Bronti Close, Nelson Estate SE17 2HF, on Wednesday 27 November, 5-7pm
  • We’ll be at East Street GP surgery, Thursday 28th November, 10am-1pm
  • As well as these events, we have been dropping in to local schools to speak to students, teachers and parents, we’ll be running drop-ins at some GP surgeries, and we’re visiting local businesses to get their views on the issues.

    If you have an idea for a community group, organisation or location in the Walworth area where people might like to speak with us, let us know at highways@southwark.gov.uk .

    Also, if you know people who might struggle with the online questions, we have paper forms available – in both English and Spanish – so get in touch via the email above.

    Once again, please encourage everyone you know locally to have their say, using the Twitter and Facebook buttons below or good old word of mouth. The more people we hear from, the better idea we have of what the issues are and what we can do to address them.
