Road Adoption, Parking etc

Following the adoption (i.e. transfer of responsibility) of Olympic Park Avenue and Abercrombie road we have held a number of meetings with London Borough of Newham (LBN) traffic officers; the latest of which was a Q&A session on 1 July 2025.

LBN have provided data supporting the road layout changes and have provided answers to a set of questions :

LBN have undertaken to share the results of the June 2025 and Autumn 2025 traffic surveys and will consult further on traffic routing.

We do not know when the "Modal Filter" (the restricted turning at Temple Mills Lane/Abercrombie and Westfield Avenue/Olympic Park Avenue will be implemented; LBN have indicated that this will be late August/September 2025. They will provide advanced notice of the change to residents.

Update 24 April 2026: the road works at Westfield Avenue/OPA are yet to be completed and we dont know the status of this plan.

We want to hear from you!
