We asked, you said, we did
Earlier this year, we asked for your feedback on our plans to transform Lewisham library, market and high street.
A huge thanks to the nearly 1,500 of you who took the time to share your thoughts. Overall, you were really positive about our proposals but you did also have some constructive advice around things including maintenance, market traders and personal safety.
Find out how your suggestions have helped influence our designs.
