Crossrail has applied to Westminster City Council to use Chepstow Road and surrounding roads with up to 70 huge articulated lorries per
day!!
You still have time to object to this and Westminster City Council is
expecting to hear neighbours’ views especially in terms of pollution,
vibrations, and loss of amenities (noise, loss of sleeping time, etc), safety
especially for children with so many schools in the area and older people.
Action groups HAVE been successful in the area on various
recent issues and you are urged to write to the Council ASAP. The objection can
be sent online. To find it on google simply type in 11/11579/XRCA and it is the
application dated 29 November. The Council will still listen to your views.
You can imagine the disruption and noise a successful
application would be for locals on such a narrow road as Chepstow, which is already
under heavy strain and congested.
The abuse of the road by these huge lorries will result in more noise, poorer air quality,
vibrations, and not least, a risk to safety in this residential neighbourhood.
There are alternatives that can be used such as the canal or
a rail track or other road routes.
Please write to the Council as soon as possible and let us know that you have written by leaving a comment with your thoughts!
Thank you.
