IMPORTANT: GREENWICH’S SUSTAINABLE STREETS PROPOSALS

A further update: The consultation has been extended into September, as so many locals complained about the survey coming out during the school holidays when many people were away!! The survey has apparently been made slightly easier to follow! If you don’t live in shooters hill effected roads, instead of entering your postcode, you can click other and say you are a member of the tennis club. There is to be a local consultation meeting at the end of August, again whilst a lot for people are away, we are awaiting further details as to when & where, so we will keep you updated as it sounds like you would need to ‘book’ a space to attend the meeting.
Many members have contacted the club over concerns of the councils ‘Sustainable Streets Proposals’, especially those who live in the surrounding streets of the Club. Caroline has written to a number of relevant Councilors and the local MP’s and is awaiting a response. In the mean time we have been reading up on the proposals. The councils website states ‘Streets will be “greener, safer, and more sustainable” under the project, adding that the proposals will cut down on parking congestion, help people switch to electric vehicles and encourage cycling’. However the reality seems parking restrictions, parking permits and time restrictions are all being proposed and this will affect members greatly. Please take part in the survey. More information will follow from the club. One of our directors attended the webinar last Thursady and reported the agenda was around anti car and income generation. Community was non existent.

MEN’S SHOWER

The men’s shower will be out of action for a while I’m afraid. The tree surgeon needs to further assess the tree to see what can be done. Plus we are consulting the insurance company as well. We will keep you informed as to the outcome.
