Havering Council has introduced a safety improvement scheme for the A1306 junction to address high vehicle speeds and accidents. Research indicates up to 1,700 vehicles per hour frequent New Road, with recorded speeds reaching 45 mph, and ten injury incidents noted. Funded by Transport for London, the project proposes pedestrian crossings, lane modifications, and separate traffic signal phases to enhance safety for school children. A public consultation opened on June 27, inviting community feedback on the proposal before the July 18 deadline.
