This bridge is a vital piece of pedestrian and cycling infrastructure needed to cross the Hayes line railway between Catford Green and to Doggett Road. It would offer direct access between Catford amenities, the Catford Green residential development, and the south and middle sections of Ladywell Fields without having to go via the congested South Circular Road. It would also be a strategic link for cyclists, offering a safer alternative to the hazardous road bridge outside Catford stations and the narrow, inadequate 'curly bridge' in Ladywell Fields
Although the bridge had been part of Barratt Homes' original proposal for the Catford Green development, it has now been dropped from the plan.
Alison Hay started this petition to MP Heidi Alexander and Lewisham councillors to persuade Barratt Homes to work with the Council to reinstate the bridge.
