Wood Vale improvements

Making our streets safer

Southwark Highways have undertaken improvements to Wood Vale to reduce traffic speeds and discourage through traffic.

The improvements include:

  • the replacement of existing speed cushions with speed humps in order to slow traffic more effectively
  • the removal of existing traffic islands - to be replaced with raised tables
  • the introduction of priority working at two locations to discourage through traffic from using this section of Wood Vale in order to access the South Circular/Lordship Lane
  • footway refurbishment on both sides of the road in order to facilitate pedestrian movement

Scheme objectives

The objective of the scheme is to reduce traffic speeds and discourage through traffic along Wood Vale.
