The meeting then discussed a number of issues of interest and possible courses of action, including:
• The proposed Quietways and its possible impact on Court Lane and Court Lane Gardens
• Protection of the raised flower beds (north end)
• Traffic light phasing at the Calton Avenue / Dulwich Village junction—excessive time allotted automatically to pedestrians, often when there are none
• Possible parking restrictions between Calton Avenue and Dekker Road to allow passing of vehicles
• Improved lighting along the length of the raised flower beds, (east side, north end)
• Overflowing rubbish bins opposite the park gates
• Overnight parking of commercial vehicles particularly at the south end
• The problem of the Foundation Schools’ coaches causing congestion in Calton Avenue and at the Village traffic lights
Please let us know your view on any of these matters, along with any solutions or courses of action you may want to suggest.
