What are we proposing?
The junction currently does not have any formal pedestrian crossing facilities, and so we have developed a new proposal to address this and make crossing the A2 Blackheath Hill safer and more comfortable for pedestrians.
We propose the installation of a ‘straight across’ light controlled pedestrian crossing across Blackheath Hill (outside the George and Dragon pub), as well as across the ‘slip road’ used by traffic turning left onto Blackheath Hill from Greenwich South Street.
In order to ensure that these new measures would not cause delays to the road network, including to bus journeys, we would need to ban traffic from turning right onto the A2 Blackheath Hill from Lewisham Road.

Connecting with London's deaf community on our consultations
To enhance how we engage and consult with London's deaf community we are trialling a British Sign Language (BSL) consultation conversation service. This service will allow us to have a two-way BSL translated discussion on any aspect of this consultation with a BSL speaker.
To request a BSL consultation conversation please contact us at haveyoursay@tfl.gov.uk and we will be in contact to arrange this at a convenient time.
Following this trial, we will evaluate the service to determine if this is something we are able to offer on other consultations in the future.
