Peckham Rye Gyratory bus improvements

Southwark Council is working with Transport for London (TfL) to improve walking, cycling and public transport routes as part of Streets for People, our ambitious plan to improve the air we breathe and the way we travel in Southwark.

We have an opportunity to rethink the transport priorities on the Peckham Rye Gyratory from Rye Lane to East Dulwich Road. The scheme has TfL bus improvements funding to deliver

  • Improved bus journey reliability
  • Improved cycling and walking routes
  • Reduce traffic on Peckham Rye (east) & on nearby school streets
  • Improved road safety
  • Provide public realm improvements

In our recent Streets for People surveys, you told us that you wanted less traffic, pavement improvements, decluttering, more trees and green spaces. We would like to hear from directly affected residents and businesses, who have the opportunity to improve the gyratory area for all methods of transport. Please tell us what you like about the proposals, what you dislike about the proposals and what should be our priorities for the scheme?

We are now engaging with residents to listen to their issues and hear their thoughts on our proposed outline design.

The scheme is currently on hold as we finalise funding arrangements and consider next steps. We hope to receive confirmation soon from TfL.

In the meantime we have been investigating amendments to the design in response to consultation feedback. We have also carried out more strategic modelling to demonstrate the impact of the proposal on the wider network and general traffic journey times. We will provide this information, consultation results and an updated programme, and invite comments on the revised design as soon as we have further clarity over the funding.
