Do we need a pedestrian crossing on Perry Vale at the rear of Forest Hill station?

Interesting that 2 replies are polar opposite to each other.
A crossing would 'encourage' cars to take the corner slower at best, forcing is very difficult. But point taken.

Personally I have never had an issue crossing here in many years of living in the area. But respect the fact that others do.

Sadly the exit of the station itself is a shocking place to try and cross, and explains why visibility is poor and surprise is high. I would encourage people to cross on the straighter part of the road, especially at busy times.

All that aside, it would be interesting to see if someone with some oomph, could get a test crossing in place. Maybe the newly re-elected MP would have a say?
