Consultation text:
As part of the Council’s commitment to promote the uptake of active modes of travel, proposals have been developed to improve the pedestrian crossing facilities and the availability of cycle parking on Strand-on-the-Green, Chiswick.
Plans outlining the proposals can be found under "Consultation Plans" on the right hand side of this page and the main changes are summarised below:
Widening of the footways at the northern end of Strand-on-the-Green and the provision of a rain garden.
Implementation of pedestrian crossing points and tactile paving on Stand-on-the-Green and Spring Grove.
Vehicle access and drainage improvements to 2 Kew Road.
Repositioning of the parking bay on the western side. Please note that no parking spaces will be removed as a result of the proposals.
Implementation of approximately 26 new Sheffield style cycle stands at the northern end of Strand on the Green.
Implementation of approximately 19 new Sheffield style cycle stands adjacent to the river on Strand on the Green.
The proposed improvements will make it easier for pedestrians to cross Strand-on-the-Green and Spring Grove, particularly for people with mobility issues, visual impairments and who are elderly. The proposed additional cycle parking will provide formal places for cyclists to lock their cycles, which will reduce the obstructive locking of cycles to fences in the local area, particularly on Gtech Community Stadium match days. These proposals support the objectives set out in Council’s Transport Strategy to improve road safety, promote the use of active travel and improve local air quality.
As part of the design, we will be considering how we can improve the drainage of surface water from the footway towards the carriageway and into gullies as it has been reported that downstream surface water ingress has occurred into a residential dwelling during storm conditions.
How to respond
Please complete the short survey by clicking on the “Take Survey” button below by Monday 11th December 2023. A copy of the proposals and the consultation letter can be accessed using the links on the right hand side of this page. If you require this information in an alternative format, please leave a question by clicking on the 'Questions' button below. Alternatively, you can contact us by emailing consult@hounslow.gov.uk or calling 020 8583 3322.
We’re unable to respond directly to every respondent, however all feedback will be summarised and presented to your ward councillors along with our recommendations. The outcome of the consultation will be available to view on this webpage once a decision has been made, which is likely to be early 2024.
Paper copies of all consultations and surveys are available. To request one, please email consult@hounslow.gov.uk or call 020 8583 2000.
