<\/a>Plan of underpass<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
The subway will be 6m wide and 2.85m high. \u00a0It will be straight, and we estimate the length as 30m. \u00a0It will be well lit, and covered by five CCTV cameras along it length (we have asked who will be monitoring these). \u00a0The entrances will be landscaped.<\/p>\n
Cycle and pedestrian routes through the subway will not be segregated, other than by different surface treatments. \u00a0 We have asked why this is so, given the potential for pedestrian\/cycle conflict and resultant accidents.<\/p>\n
The underpass will have a significant impact on this neighbourhood, over time. \u00a0This part of the Oxford Gardens Conservation Area has been cut off from Hammersmith, by the railway line, since the 1890s. \u00a0The initial impact may be modest, but will increase as the new development sites in White City are built out.<\/p>\n
We have not yet been given a timetable for construction of the underpass, if planning permission is granted next month. \u00a0Both RBKC and LBHF Ciuncils will be deciding separately on the planning application.<\/p>\n
