Other infrastructure latest
In year funding has been sourced for Louise Road/Manbey Road crossing. Work is expected to start January 2026.
CFR7 – issues with levels were holding up work at Liberty Bridge Road/Leyton Road but have been resolved. Work is expected to move south after Christmas. A topological survey is due 10th December – this would cover the Greenway diversion stretch of CFR7. There is sadly no firm date for spades in the ground. The plan is to build the permanent design with temporary materials in the first instance.
Jake Russell Walk should be upgraded next year.
Other potential projects were discussed.
Rides planning – the Greenway closure between Channelsea and Upper Road will restrict our use of the Greenway for rides. We discussed which rides could run, and whether we could start rides in other places in Newham.
Social planning – KF to contact the treasurer with questions.
