Earlier in the year Merton Council’s planning committee rejected proposals to build 456 new homes at 265 Burlington Road thanks to over 400 local residents writing in to object.

Planning Application 20/P1253 – Office Block at 265 Burlington Road

🚨URGENT LOCAL BUSINESS NEWS🚨

If your Merton based business is eligable for either the Small Business Grant Fund or the Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Grant Fund, please fill in this form from Merton Council

I am delighted that Motspur Park Station is set to benefit from extra funding for step-free access in the Budget.

I will be hosting a public meeting at the Methodist Church, Martin Way on Friday 6th of March from 18:30 – 20:30 along with Cannon Hill Councillor, and Leader of the Opposition on Merton Council, Nick McLean.

Due to the RMT announcing that its members will be taking further strike action on the SWR network in March, there will be an amended strike timetable on the following dates:

• Monday 9th March

• Tuesday 10th March

• Thursday 12th March

• Friday 13th March

Due to the unprecedented level of strike action by members of the RMT union, and the wholly unnecessary impact this had on passengers, the Government has worked with South Western Railway to secure compensation arrangements.

On Thursday 12th February Merton Council's Planning Applications Committee will consider the proposals for the Tesco Site, 265 Burlington Road, New Malden, KT3 4NE. 

Below is my email to the Committee.

Good morning,

I often raise complaints on behalf of residents living above the Northern line in South Wimbledon about the levels of noise. 

I am pleased the Government has announced allocations of a £112 million Rough Sleeping Initiative fund to provide local support for those living on the streets.
