Out and about on Sandbourne Road

I was out knocking on doors last night on Sandbourne Road along with the lovely Janet. Most people seemed happy, but the following issues were raised:

1. Disabled access for wheelchairs users along Jerningham Road. Mr Ridgeway said he and others were having difficulty on the pavements, where uneven surfaces and raised areas around trees were proving difficult to drive along. By the time he had reached Sainbury's at New Cross Gate, the bumps and jolts were causing him pain and discomfort - I have raised this with Cllr Cross this morning.

2. Lewisham homes - again some repairs are not being done. I will pursue this with Cllr Cross.

3. CCTV and fly-tipping. A resident raised with us the issue of dumping rubbish on the corner of Reservoir Road and why not use the CCTV from local businesses to find the culprits. An interesting idea which I will raise with Cllr Cross.

If you have any issues or concerns, then you can email me at paul@paulbell.org or add a comment to this posting.
