All rights reserved ((0)100019252) 2009 Introduction. • Southwark Living Streets and Southwark Cyclists have developed a proposal for a network of safe walking and cycling routes in Southwark. • This has been discussed in broad outline with Southwark officers and elements of it have been presented to some Community Councils. • This paper sets out the proposal, proposes next steps and invites comments. 3 What is a Green Link? Planting & Greenery Biodiverse Connects Local Safe & Attractive Amenities Cycle Friendly Pedestrian Friendly Surrey Canal Path – Peckham Town Centre to Burgess Park 4 Objectives. • The purpose of the network is to create an alternative to streets that are dominated by vehicles for residents to get about the borough in a healthy, safe and pleasant environment in their day-to-day journeys for work, school shopping and leisure. • The routes are intended to provide direct benefits… - To people’s physical and mental health. - In improving the environment in terms of both air and noise. - By contributing to the Council meeting its climate change obligations, by offering credible and attractive alternatives to short car journeys. - Encouraging people make a far greater number and range of journeys by walking and cycling. • More specifically the network is designed to: - Take advantage of Southwark’s many large and small parks and open spaces, linking them by routes which are safe, and perceived to be safe, for walking and cycling.

All rights reserved. (0)1000192522010 2 Introduction. • This document brings together the work of a number of groups over the past few years. Its aim is to draw together many of the ideas that local people have had to make Peckham a safer and far more pleasant place to get to and move around in on foot and by bicycle. • Peckham has the potential to a fantastic place to access on foot or by bike. Large numbers of people live within a short walk of the town centres of Peckham and Nunhead and the parades of local shops that are dotted around the area. To the north and south are large parks and other characterful green areas that are often only a short walk or cycle ride away. • In recent decades, however, provision for motor vehicles has dominated the agenda and Peckham’s roads currently serve to sever communities from their local facilities. High levels of casualties on almost all of the major roads in the area are the smoking gun evidence that the streets of Peckham are no longer arteries that link communities together but are canyons for vehicles to use to pass through as quickly as they can to their destinations.
