Traffic Consultation and Call to Action

Thursday, 23 November 2023 | 4:30 pm | Clyde Hall, Clyde Rd, CR0 6SZ

The Council is consulting with residents in two Addiscombe Wards to identify and resolve genuine concerns raised over traffic problems that resulted from the one-way systems introduced in Addiscombe West.

The Council wants to hear about how traffic in our roads has affected your life, and whether you have any ideas on how to resolve the problems.

There are four “Community Listening Events”, with the first on Thursday 23rd November in Clyde Hall (any time between 4:30 – 8:30 pm).

Introduction: Making Lebanon Rd one-way southbound in 2015 (to remove northbound commuter traffic and improve road safety) resulted in residential access streets adjacent to Lebanon Rd feeling the impact of displaced traffic. As a result, traffic management measures were introduced in Addiscombe Court Rd and Canning Rd in 2018. These measures caused traffic to be displaced to residential access streets within the HOME Resident Association Area, predominantly Elgin Rd (the next available northbound route for through traffic).
