BRONDESBURY STATION ACCESS IMPROVEMENT

Dates: consultation March 2009; reply due 3 April 2009. Decision by Brent Council. Jacqueline Saunders. CCC member dealing with it Jean Dollimore. RESPONDED 26 March 2009

A consultation on Brent Council’s proposal in partnership with Transport for London to improve accessibility to Brondesbury station. From the council text:

As a part of TfL’s Area Based Schemes/ Station Access, Brent is proposing a range of measures aimed at improving access to the station. Details of these proposals are shown in the enclosed drawing and are aimed at:

Improving the quality of walking surfaces and the layout of routes to the station by repaving the poor condition footways at Loverage Road and introducing entry treatment at Drakes Courtyard

Reducing “clutter” on the footway by rationalising signs and removing unnecessary bollards fences, guard rails and signs

Improving road safety by the relocation of the pelican crossing and providing enhanced crossing facilities at main junctions

Enhancing the general appearance of the area by introducing a mural to the Kilburn bridge abutment and clean the abutment of Brondesbury bridge

Enhancing the landscaped area and street lighting

 

CCC’s response

The improved street lighting under the bridges on Iverson Road and Loveridge Road should be beneficial to cyclists. The removal of guard rails (as suggested in the text) would also be beneficial, but we can’t find the locations on the plan.
