Scheme update for Hoe Street between Pendlestone Road and Lea Bridge Road

Between 6 July to 30 July 2021 local people were invited to take part in the public consultation for the Hoe Street scheme between Orford Road and Lea Bridge Road. Thank you again to everyone who took part in the consultation and shared their thoughts on the proposals, which aim to provide more transport options to local people travelling between Lea Bridge Road, Walthamstow Central and the town centre, and build upon the existing network of safe and direct walking and cycling routes across the borough.

A total of 516 people took part in the public consultation, and overall, there was a high level of support for all proposals. For more information on the results from the public consultation visit www.enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/hoestreet

Following the public consultation, the scheme was approved in principle for construction. However at the time (November 2021) there were some areas of the design that needed to be refined and finalised, and we were still in the process of securing all the funding required to construct the full scheme. Therefore, we decided to deliver the scheme in phases starting with the section of Hoe Street between Orford Road and Grosvenor Park Road.

During 2022, we completed the section between Orford Road and Grosvenor Park Road and were able to extend the works as far as Pendlestone Road.

We have now secured further funding for the scheme and we’re writing to local people to make you aware that we intend to progress with the remaining improvement works on Hoe Street between Pendlestone Road and Lea Bridge Road later in the year.
