Speeding up buses through West Norwood

Have your say on buses in West Norwood – before Thursday 15th Feb at:
https://haveyoursay.lambeth.gov.uk/en-GB/projects/survey
The survey covers Norwood Rd from Tulse Hill to Robson Rd and round the one-way system past the bus garage back to Robson Rd.
Paper copies of the survey are available in the West Norwood Library and the Town Hall in Brixton.
The London Mayor wants buses to travel at 10 -13 mph. In much of West Norwood, especially in rush hours, buses only reach half that speed. This first step survey is about collecting a wide range of views & suggestions for improving bus journeys in West Norwood.
To discuss in-person you can join a small-group Walk and Talk session on mornings of Thurs 5th or Fri 6th Feb. Book first!

Clean air buses

London Mayor Sadiq Khan is cleaning up London’s bus routes. In West Norwood our #2,  #415 and  #249 buses are some of the cleanest with  Euro VI Hybrid engines. The #3 and #68 are new routemasters and have  Euro VI engines.

Some of the older buses #417, #432 and P13 with Euro V diesel engines are retrofitted with ad blue to reduce nitrogen oxides and thus to meet Euro VI standard.

Your Labour councillors are campaigning for all West Norwood buses to have clean engines. To support our campaign email Florence Eshalomi, our representative on the London Assembly  Florence.Eshalomi@london.gov.uk

The council works with the Mayor on cleaning up London and helps  to clean up our air by  promoting electric cars & charging points, more cycling and  more street trees.  Householder need to rethink wood burning stoves too. And we can all campaign to make sure the Conservative Brexit keeps Europe’s tough pollution controls.
