recommending public realm and safety improvements such as enhanced
lighting, CCTV, and activation of underused spaces;
 -     That a new bullet point be added to
read:
an assessment of the potential impact of removing the
Angerstein Roundabout, in accordance with the Royal Borough of
Greenwich’s transport policy objectives, on active travel
opportunities in the local area. This should include consideration
of how its removal could help reduce vehicular dominance, alleviate
congestion, and enhance conditions for walking and cycling. The
assessment must also evaluate the existing roundabout’s role

reconfiguration or removal, in consultation with TfL and other
relevant stakeholders.

out-of-hours use, subject to any necessary management or
safeguarding arrangements.

impact on local services, amenities and infrastructure,
environmental sustainability and open space contrary to Policies
