Local residents living in Redvers Road, Noel Park, will be relieved that bus drivers will now be able to use toilets installed after a successful campaign by Liberal Democrats.

Concerns were raised after bus drivers, caught short during the day, were using bushes and alleys behind the Hollywood Green cinema. After contact from Liberal Democrat councillor Fiyaz Mughal, Transport for London has now installed toilets for the drivers to use.

Local residents are also worried about the number of buses turning into Redvers Road causing damage to road surfaces and creating vibrations. Cllr Mughal will continue to press Transport for London to suggest changes to improve bus routes in the area.

Cllr Fiyaz Mughal, Noel Park, commented:

“Residents will be very pleased that drivers will now be able to use these facilities – it will be a relief to all.

“However this is only part of the problems created by buses using this small road. I will continue working with Transport for London to help residents who are concerned with the vibrations and damage caused by buses turning into Redvers Road.”
