Stondon Walk: Safer & Brighter Alleys

From "Green Street Community Assemblies"

Go to the project

For Local Residents:

The local residents have called on the Council and the Mayor of London to do something about the crime in Abbots Road/ Stondon Walk. Tragically a young man lost his life on the 29th of December 2020, and the community do not want his death to be in vain.  

The community have had a number of complaints for decades about the area, this includes flytipping, drugs, urination and violence. Along with the Councils CCTV, there are other ways that crime can be “designed out” to make our area safer for local people. That is why we are asking for you to vote this project through. 

For The Wider Community:

Stondon Walk and Abbotts Road is a vital public walkway that connects the surrounding streets to Barking Road. However, the crime, flytipping and general feel of the area mean that residents, especially women, do not feel safe.  

The Met Police have helpfully compiled the crime statistics which show this is a hot spot. This means the activity happening in Stondon Walk and Abbots Road can spread .

By helping us to make the area better, you are showcasing what we can do, and help us to be the pilot for other areas - maybe even yours. 

Our proposal:

  1. Restricted car access
  2. Added greenery
  3. Intergenerational activities
  4. Landmark murals
  5. New & modern railings
  6. Increased street lighting

Excellent proposal and well needed! In fact this should be replicated across multiple areas of Newham - this needs to happen.
    What a fantastic initiative. Our area and local community would benefit so much from the much needed investment.

    This is a great proposal & would really transform this space. As a young woman, I never feel 100% comfortable walking through Stondon Walk, but this will make it feel safer, give residents ownership of the space & create opportunities to bring the community together.

    I fully support this great proposal. The revitalisation of the alley way would be a great landmark for the local residents, for the community and for the future generations.

    This is a wonderful proposal for what is a neglected area. The alleyway is a vital link for local residents. This proposal would benefit all the local community for generations.
