Dear Councillor, Beddington to Rowdown Cable Decommisioning Project We Are Getting in Touch to Let You Know About Essential Engi Date: 18/05/21 T: 0800 197 0118 E: [email protected] Selsdon and Addington Village ward Dear Councillor, Beddington to Rowdown Cable Decommisioning Project We are getting in touch to let you know about essential engineering works coming up in your ward. As part of National Grid’s investment programme to support London’s growth, we need to decommission electricity cables that run underneath local roads between substations in Beddington and New Addington. The cables have reached the end of their useful life and are no longer needed. A project to replace the cables has been underway since November 2019. Our specialist contractor, JSM, will carry out work in your ward from late-May, at the locations detailed below, and we expect to complete the works in autumn. We have carefully planned the decommissioning project to minimise disruption to the local community, and we are working closely with local authorities to coordinate our activities. - Junction between Croham Valley - Farnborough Avenue: To be Road and The Ruffetts: Detailed confirmed below - Broadcoombe: To be confirmed - Island junction between Farnborough - Footpath between Broadcoombe and Avenue and Farnborough Crescent: Farnborough Avenue: To be Detailed below confirmed - Croham Valley Road: To be - Huntingfield: To be confirmed confirmed - Falconwood Road: To be confirmed - Selsdon Park Road: To be confirmed The first phase of this work is purging the cables with air to remove the oil. Works will take place next to the junction between Croham Valley Road and The Ruffetts from 27 May to 7 June 2021. Further works will commence in the island junction between Farnborough Avenue and Farnborough Crescent from 31 May to 10 June 2021. Our working hours will be Monday to Friday 8.00am to 6.00pm and on Saturday 8.00am to 1.00pm. The timing and duration of the work may be subject to change due to site and weather conditions. We will write to you again before the works at the other site locations begin, when we have confirmed dates. We will send a separate letter via Royal Mail to local residents, giving them one to three weeks’ notice before the works are planned to begin. We are also providing a dedicated community relations project email address and phone number to residents if they have any queries or concerns as the works progress. We want to offer you an online briefing on the decommissioning project in the coming weeks to provide more detail on timings and locations. Please contact us to let us know if you want a briefing, and we will organise it for you. We are keen to engage with you throughout the project and would appreciate the opportunity to hear your feedback and answer your questions. For your information, the community relations phone number is 0800 197 0118 and the email is [email protected]. Should you have any questions about the information above, please do get in touch.

  • Woodlands and Hedgerows
    London Borough of Croydon Habitat Action Plan Woodlands and Hedgerows “One impulse from a vernal wood may teach you more of man, of moral, evil and of good, than all the sagas can. (William Wordsworth) 1. Aims • To conserve and enhance Croydon’s Woodlands and hedgerows for the benefit of biodiversity and for both current and future generations of people. • To promote, maintain and improve the active involvement by all sections of the community in the enjoyment, use and conservation of Croydon’s woodlands and hedgerows 1 2. Introduction Woodlands and hedgerows are an important element in the natural environment of the Borough. They provide opportunities for recreation, health and well being, are a valued component of the landscape, an essential habitat for wildlife, provide employment, contribute to the supply of timber and are an effective means of absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Much woodland is identified as being ‘ancient woodland’ (that which has been in existence since at least 1600); they are described as `semi-natural’ because the woodlands have received past management. They represent the most important woodland habitats for wildlife, sometimes containing species of national rarity. The majority of woods are comprised of broad-leaved species, although some coniferous plantations exist. The Great Storm of 1987 had a widespread impact on trees and woodlands throughout the Borough; it also brought many benefits, including a profusion of deadwood habitats, the rebirth of woodland management and an increase in public involvement and interest to better manage Croydon’s woods for now and for future generations. 3. Current status Woodland is the second most extensive natural habitat found in London.
