We the undersigned, being local residents, school children and visitors petition Westminster Council to install a pedestrian crossing on the Formosa Street and Warwick Avenue junction (Sutherland Avenue side). This junction is in urgent need of a safe, pedestrian crossing and is a direct route for a high volume of pedestrians commuting to and from a number of local pre, primary and secondary schools (Park View, St Saviour’s CE, St Joseph’s RC and St Mary Magdalene's CE to name only 3 primary schools); as well as a well travelled route to the canal bridge at Formosa Street/Blomfield Road and local businesses on Formosa Street. At present, NO safe crossing point exists and vehicles barely stop at the roundabout for each other, let alone for hapless pedestrians.

I am currently gathering feedback from local parents about near misses at the junction to build a case for the council. Post a link to this petition on your Facebook neighborhood group today so we can keep the momentum building. Email your local Westminster council representative to demand they prioritize this crossing for our school children.

The momentum behind this petition is undeniable and shows that our neighborhood demands safer streets now. Email your local council representative today to tell them we expect action at the Formosa Street and Warwick Avenue junction.

I walk my kids to school every morning and its honestly terrifying at this junction. cars just fly round the corner without looking. put a crossing in before someone gets hit
