22 October (Part 2) - No more Clockwork Oranges
Yesterday’s tight schedule didn’t allow for a trip to Peabody’s Question and Answer session in Sainsbury’s but returning rather earlier than expected to Abbey Wood station I made the short detour to see what was going on.
I
was a little disappointed that there were no leaflets to take away and feature
here, only half a dozen wall mounted images of what
the new developments planned to
stretch from Southmere Lake down to Coralline Walk might look like. All viewed
from a favourable high angle one visitor who was in a sceptical frame of mind
commented as I passed by.
I was rather more surprised to see a Bexleyheath Broadway style Shared Space
planned for a pedestrian crossing in Yarnton Way.
That should be fun for the boy racers who frequent those parts.
A planning application is not expected until early next year.
As I left the store and the traffic lights outside displayed the little green man
I fortunately heard the white van approaching at high speed and didn’t try to
cross. He totally ignored the red light.
It’s only a matter of time…
