This is your reply to the blog NEW IDEA for Purley Square - High Street and Brighton Road outside URC Church Original Message by Peter Morgan Coulsdon Roads & Traffic Consultant, Member of Coulsdon NP and of ECRA: I note with interest the Purley Mail report that Purley is to get the same treatment that has disfigured Coulsdon.
I put forward an alternative layout for that key area.
My layout provides improved and safer traffic flow, with less traffic dominance.
It provides much more onstreet parking.
It improved opportunities for pedestrians to cross the road and move around the area.
It also relocates the unsightly recycling centre and bus stand.
There would be opportunity for enhanced trees and greenery.
Fancy paving could be included if wanted, but that puts the cost up greatly.
Overall cost should be less than with the council's consultants' misguided Vision for Purley.
Sketch plans illustrating the concept may be seen at:
