Executive summary
Between 17 August and 27 September 2015, we consulted on proposals to make
improvements for pedestrians and cyclists at six locations along the A3.
We received 78 responses to the consultation. 60 responses were submitted online and
answered the question about support for the overall scheme. Of these 60 online responses,
45 supported or partially supported the overall scheme. 13 did not support the overall
scheme, 2 were not sure or had no opinion.
18 further responses were received by email or letter which expressed support, opposition,
or further comment on specific elements of the proposals.
Comments from respondents included general support for the proposals, views on the
proposals for shared use, concern about the interaction between cyclists and pedestrians,
and comments on the installation of barriers and signage.
After considering all the responses, we intend to proceed with the scheme as set out in the
consultation documents. We plan to start work in autumn 2016.

1 Introduction We conducted a six week public consultation between 17 August and 27 September 2015 on proposals to make improvements for pedestrians and cyclists at six locations along the A3. Members of the public and stakeholders were invited to give their views either by filling in the survey online or by responding via post or email. Letters were sent to those living near to the proposed junctions and subways. This document summarises their responses to the consultation. The consultation generated 78 responses from members of the public. There were 5 responses received from stakeholders. Subject to the comments put forward in this consultation it is intended that the proposals are introduced from Autumn 2016.
1.1 Purpose of the Scheme
The overall purpose of the scheme is to provide better facilities for people that walk and cycle in the London boroughs of Merton and Kingston. The scheme consists of a package of six different proposals for changes to pedestrian and cycling crossings, junctions and subways at various locations along the A3. The proposed changes are in line with the Mayor’s Transport Strategy to facilitate an increase in walking and cycling. Three of the proposals would improve subway facilities and safety for cyclists and pedestrians by formally allowing cyclists to use the subways without having to dismount and introducing barriers at strategic locations to reduce the risk of conflict between pedestrians and cyclists.. Two of the proposals are road safety schemes to extend shared use facilities and would improve safety at crossings for pedestrians and cyclists at side road junctions along the A3. The sixth proposal is a scheme to widen and improve an existing shared use footpath. This proposal was not open to consultation, but views and opinions were welcomed.
1.2 Descriptions of the proposals
The consultation documents set out the following proposals:
Allowing cyclists to formally use existing pedestrian subways without having to dismount at Ely Close, Bushey Road, Keswick Avenue, Southwood Drive, and Warren Drive South. The subways would be designated as shared use, with signage positioned on approaches to clearly identify areas of shared use
Improving pedestrian and cyclist safety in these newly created shared use areas by installing cycle barriers at carefully selected locations, guiding cyclists into pedestrian sightlines to be more visible, and reducing the risk of conflict
4
Resurfacing of footways and new tactile paving at Keswick Avenue connection to subway, and improved ease of access for cyclists with the installation of a dropped kerb
Introducing raised tables across the roadway, bollards along the footway edge and tactile paving to assist visually impaired pedestrians at the junctions of Malden Way (Southbound) with Consfield Avenue, Byron Avenue, Stanley Avenue and Woodfield Gardens. The raised tables would have the effect of slowing approaching vehicles and making it safer for cyclists to cross the junction.
Extending the pavement and formalising shared use for pedestrians and cyclists at the junction of Elmbridge Avenue with Tolworth Rise North, making it safe for cyclists to ride on the footway at the end of the eastbound slip road to continue across Elmbridge Avenue without dismounting
Widening the shared use path on Beverley Way beneath the Coombe Way Flyover, installing new tactile paving at crossing points and resurfacing the shared path

2 The consultation
The consultation, which ran from 17 August to 27 September 2015, was designed to enable TfL to understand local opinion about the proposed improvements to pedestrian and cycling crossings, junctions and subways, and shared use areas at various locations along the A3.
The potential outcomes of the consultation are:
We decide the consultation raises no issues that should prevent us from proceeding with the scheme as originally planned
We modify the scheme in response to issues raised in consultation
We abandon the scheme as a result of issues raised in the consultation The objectives of the consultation were:
To give stakeholders and the public easily-understandable information about the proposals and allow them to respond
To understand the level of support or opposition for the changes to crossings, subways, and junctions along the A3
To understand any issues that might affect the proposal of which we were not previously aware
To understand concerns and objections
To allow respondents to make suggestions
2.1 Who we consulted The public consultation intended to seek the views of people living close to the subways and crossings, as local residents would most likely be the most common source of pedestrian trips and cycle journeys through the subways and crossings. We also consulted stakeholders including the affected Councils, traffic police, London TravelWatch, Members of Parliament, Assembly Members and local interest groups. A list of the stakeholders we consulted is shown in Appendix C and a summary of their responses is given in Section 6.
2.2 Consultation material, distribution and publicity The consultation was published online at https://consultations.tfl.gov.uk/roads/a3-improvements. The dedicated webpage explained the background to the proposal, and individual links were provided to access the details of the changes proposed at each geographical location. Consultees were encouraged to complete a survey divided into separate questions on each of the sections of the A3 where change was proposed. A general closed question was included inviting people to register their overall level of support for the general package of proposals along the A3. This question was mandatory for online respondents; however, consultees were able to answer as many or as few of the questions on the separate sections as they wished. We also invited people to respond with comments on each of the sections. These fields were not compulsory.
7
A list of the questions featured in the online survey can be found in Appendix E. We raised awareness of the consultation by writing to approximately 6,897 local residents and businesses, and emailing key stakeholders. The scheme proposed changes to a number of locations along a long corridor, and the distribution of consultation material targeted residents and businesses by including maps of the proposed changes in their immediate vicinity. The letter outlined the locations of all the proposals to ensure that consultees were informed and encouraged to respond to all the proposed changes, as they desired. Copies of the consultation materials are shown in Appendix B and a map of the distribution area for the consultation letter can be found in Appendix C. People were invited to respond to the consultation using a variety of methods. They could respond via our freepost address (FREEPOST TFL CONSULTATIONS), by emailing [email protected] or by accessing the online consultation where they could let us know their views.

5 Responses from statutory bodies and other stakeholders
5 stakeholder responses were received in total. A summary of these responses is
included below. Kingston Cycling Campaign (KCC) KCC supports the proposals but would welcome further provision of purpose-built
cycle crossings between South Lane and the Tolworth Roundabout, south of Shannon Corner, and at Raynes Park sports ground. KCC propose the pedestrian subway at Fullers Way South and Fullers Way North as a potential site for conversion to shared use.
Councillor Ken Smith, St. James ward, Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames Councillor Smith expressed his concern regarding the speed of vehicles turning into Malden Road from the A3 / Malden Junction, and that this posed a danger both to vehicles exiting Blakes Lane, and traffic visiting Coombe Boys School.
Councillor Mary-Jane Jeanes, West Barnes ward, London Borough of Merton Councillor Jeanes requested further information on the distribution area of the leaflet to ensure that residents in Cobham Avenue had been appropriately consulted. The councillor also commented that residents might wish for a raised table, not the surface treatment proposed. Cllr Jeanes stated that this would be necessary to prevent a situation where drivers chose to use Cobham Avenue instead of the other junctions where raised tables were to be installed. Councillor Richard Hudson, Alexandra ward, Royal Borough of Kingston upon
Thames Cllr Hudson noted that he believes the underpasses are too narrow to permit cyclists to travel through them without dismounting, and that formalising shared use would increase the risk of collision for potentially vulnerable pedestrians. Cllr Hudson also stated that the changes to the subways were not required.
Charles Barraball, Living Streets/ Merton Cycling Campaign/ Merton Seniors’
Forum
Mr Barraball expressed broad support for the schemes, but with some concerns about the installation of barriers in subways and highlighted this as a potential source of obstruction for mobility scooter users, and cyclists with trailers. Pedestrian priority signs were requested in the proposed areas of shared use. Cycling links via Shannon Corner and direct links from Coombe Lane to the existing shared use section on the A3 northbound were requested.

6 Conclusion
A majority of consultation respondents said that they supported or partially supported our proposals for pedestrian and cycling improvements at locations along the A3. Having considered the issues raised in consultation, we intend to proceed with the schemes as proposed. No changes to the original designs are proposed as a result of the issues commonly identified in the consultation. However, the provision of signage and markings will be reviewed prior to implementation. Please see Appendix A for TfL’s response to issues commonly raised in consultation.
7 Next steps
Construction works are expected to begin in autumn 2016.

Appendix A – Response to issues raised
Response to issues on overall scheme
Concerns about cyclist behaviour
We acknowledge concerns about cyclist behaviour, although our research shows that most
cyclists ride responsibly, and that cyclists are no more likely to disobey road rules than
other road users. Approximately 50 per cent of offences reported are committed by car
drivers and motorcycle riders, 26 per cent by commercial vehicle drivers and 24 per cent by
cyclists. Statistics on road traffic collisions in Greater London show the number of injuries
and fatalities for pedestrians in collisions involving cyclists are many times fewer than those
involving motor vehicles.
TfL promotes adherence to the Highway Code by all road users and encourages
responsible cycling and mutual respect between cyclists and other road users. We work to
eliminate offences such as jumping red lights, cycling on the pavement and cycling at night
without lights. We do this using police enforcement and education programmes, as well as
thorough marketing and engagement campaigns.
We recognise that some pavement cyclists break the law to avoid the dangers of motor
traffic. However, we anticipate that providing dedicated and safe space for cyclists will
discourage people from riding on pavements elsewhere. Providing direct links for cyclists to
cross the A3 safely at these locations would remove a number of obstacles to continuous
cycling routes in Kingston and Merton, and ensure that the needs of pedestrians are not
compromised at the same time. Providing marked space for cyclists can also help other
road users by letting them know where to expect high volumes of cyclists.
The proposed changes to shared space encourage safer use of crossings along the A3 and
make existing routes more convenient for cyclists.
TfL partially funds the Metropolitan Police’s Cycle Safety Team and are working on a
strategic enforcement plan, taking into account all activities. Any deployment will be
evidence driven.
Conditions of subways in severe weather may make conditions hazardous for
cyclists (e.g. subways prone to flooding, or ice)
A survey of the individual subways and sites will be undertaken prior to works starting and
any issues requiring maintenance will be addressed.
19
Concerns over increased potential for conflict or collision between pedestrians and
cyclists in areas designated as shared use
Shared space has been proposed for certain areas to meet specific needs, such as
providing better and coherent cycle connections to other cycle routes and destinations or to
formalise and make safe existing cycling practices.
In subways, shared use areas have been proposed only where there is enough space and
visibility to safely accommodate expected use, or in conjunction with other measures such
as barriers, which mean that shared space could be safely adopted.
Measurements have been taken at all the proposed subway sites and the proposals for
shared use conform to the required minimum dimensions within the engineering design
standards. All subway areas within the proposals are wider than 2.0 metres. It is
considered that cyclists are unlikely to cycle much faster than walking pace. The use of
single barriers to encourage cyclists into the sightlines of pedestrians and to limit speeds on
switchbacks would also remove potential for collision.
Please see responses below for TfL’s response to specific concerns raised in relation to the
different locations where shared space is proposed.
Concerns for pedestrians over shared use in subways at Ely Close, Keswick Avenue,
Bushey Road, Southwood Drive, and Warren Drive South
All of the subways where shared use is proposed exceed the 2.0 metres minimum width required in the London Cycling Design Standards 2 (LCDS2) guidelines, and pedestrian and cyclist counts have been undertaken to ascertain the current levels of walking and cycling. The results indicated low levels of cycling at all locations. Monday to Friday counts indicated a very low level of cycling in Keswick Avenue and Bushey Way with less than 20 cyclists over a 12 hour period. Southwood Avenue and Warren Drive display a low level of cyclists at less than 100 cyclists within a 12 hour period. Ely Close recorded the highest level of cyclists at 272 over a 12 hour period. 51 cyclists were recorded in the peak hour (08:00-09:00). This is still classified as low level in accordance with LCDS2 guidelines. Saturday counts for Keswick Avenue, Bushey Way, Southwood Avenue and Warren Drive subways indicated a very low level of cycling: less than than 25 cyclists over a 12 hour period. Ely Close recorded the highest level of cyclists at 156 over a 12 hour period on a Saturday. 21 cyclists were recorded in the peak hour (16:00-17:00) and is classified low level according to LCDS2. As there is a low level of cycling in the locations proposed for shared use, the risk for potential conflict between cyclists and pedestrians in the subways is low. The installation of barriers to reduce cyclist speed, and signage to highlight areas of shared use, will further mitigate collision, as below.
20
Concerns over installation of barriers in subways
A number of concerns were raised about the installation of barriers in the subways. A single cycle barrier will be installed at the intended locations, rather than a pair. This will be strategically placed in each case to limit cyclists to appropriate speeds and to make sure that approaching cyclists remain in pedestrian sightlines. The use of a single barrier will also ensure that users of mobility scooters and cycles with trailers or panniers are not impeded, and that they do not get “caught” between barriers.
Requests to revise or review proposed shared use signage and on-street markings
TfL will consider the installation of additional pedestrian priority shared use signs on the
approach to the subways. We will also review, and where appropriate, revise on-street
markings to ensure that areas of shared use are clearly signed, and cycle lanes are
indicated appropriately.
Requests to impose 20mph speed limits on side roads and A3 slip roads
Whilst we do not currently plan to introduce a 20mph speed limit along the A3 slip roads, we
have long supported 20mph speed limits on borough roads. Approximately 25% of all
London roads are now 20mph, and London boroughs such as Islington, Camden and the
City of London are leading the way with borough-wide 20mph limits on their roads.
One of the key recommendations of the Mayor's Roads Task Force, which published its findings in July 2013, was that TfL and the boroughs should look to introduce 20mph speed limits across London "to improve safety, attractiveness and ambience". In response to this TfL has identified around 50km of its road network which could potentially be appropriate for 20mph speed limits.
We will continue to work closely with the relevant boroughs to investigate the potential for 20mph speed limit schemes.
Request to install a raised table at the junction of Cobham Avenue with Malden Way
It is not possible to install a raised table at this junction due to the existing inconsistency in
levels between Cobham Avenue with Malden Way (A3), and the existing crossover with the
adjacent business. The junction will instead be resurfaced with a special treatment applied
to ensure that motorists and cyclists are aware of the need to reduce speed on entry and
exit to and from Malden Road.
The effect of implementing the raised tables on other junctions in the immediate area will be to slow the speed of traffic on entry and exit to the side roads. This is designed to force motorists to slow down when turning at these junctions without significantly increasing journey times. It is not considered likely that there will be a significant increase in traffic along Cobham Avenue as a result of motorists choosing to use this road in preference to other parallel streets.
21
Concerns about safety on Malden Road near Malden Roundabout A safety study of Malden Roundabout will be commissioned in response to concerns about the speed of traffic exiting Malden Roundabout onto Malden Road.
