Woodford Avenue's bus lanes will reopen on June 2 with limited operating hours due to safety concerns raised by residents. Initially established without consultation, the lanes were suspended for review after complaints about increased congestion and safety risks. The new plan, which allows bus lane use only during peak hours, will be finalized following a public consultation. While Transport for London claims to have monitored traffic to inform changes, a petition with over 900 signatures seeks permanent removal of the lanes due to ongoing safety and congestion issues. Feedback from locals is being actively considered by TfL.
"It's vital that the transport network works for all, and we're carefully considering feedback from local people when proposing these changes."
"Many people in Redbridge and the surrounding areas rely on the buses every day to access education and work. These proposed changes will ensure that buses continue to be an effective mode of transportation for the community."
