Get a formal crossing in place on Crofton Lane near the footbridge

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

This location is in desperate need of a formal crossing. Many families use this route to school, and many parents and small children are in danger every day. It is very difficult to see oncoming cars until it is too late, and it is always very busy on this road, not only during rush hour.

There have been fatal accidents involving children here in the past. Any parent or Crofton staff will know the potential dangers here. Mums with babies have no option but to go this way, as the alternatives are carrying the pushchair up too many steps to cross the railway bridge, or walk the long way and go under the bridge on Tudor Way, where the pavement is too narrow for a pushchair. No other route is possible or safe. This needs to happen and we need your help! Please sign my petition so I can take it to Bromley Council and prove to them how important this is to us.
