Burstow - TfL have seen the light

October 21, 2008 12:00 AM

Paul Burstow, MP for Sutton and Cheam, has welcomed news that TfL have abandoned their plan to remove Cheam's heritage lampposts.

Commenting on the news Paul said:

'I'm glad that TfL have abandoned their plan and are now going to work with Sutton Council to upgrade the existing lampposts.

'Local pressure has helped them see sense and now we can look forward to better lighting for Cheam without any damage being done to the unique character of the village.

'I will, of course, be keeping up the pressure on TfL to ensure that that they respect the conservation status of the village.'

ENDS

Notes to Editors:

Representatives from TfL and the local council will met yesterday (20th October 2008) to discuss proposals to enhance the existing heritage lighting.

    If you are a resident of the Sutton and Cheam constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
