The Royal Borough of Greenwich is partnering with 1466 Transport for London (TfL) to run a new consultation on changes to the West Parkside and Pilot Busway on Greenwich Peninsula. Residents are asked to help shape the final plan by submitting their views on the proposals.

The proposals aim to create a dual carriageway with dedicated 24/7 bus lanes on either side of the central reservation and improve road safety. It also aims to keep journey times for bus passengers travelling to and from North Greenwich low and bus services reliable, as development of the Peninsula continues.

Councillor Sizwe James, Cabinet Member for Transport, Economy and Smart Cities encouraged residents to participate in the consultation, saying the proposed improvements represent the culmination of months of partnership-working between the Royal Borough of Greenwich, TfL, Knight Dragon and other key partners to improve road safety and public transport access.
