Council calls for clearer signage for drivers ahead of TfL’s A316 speed limit change
We’ve raised serious concerns that TfL has not done enough to inform residents about plans to lower the speed limit on a busy stretch of the A316 to 30mph - with no extra warning signs planned when the change comes into force tomorrow (20 March).
The new limit will apply between St Margaret’s Roundabout and Richmond Circus.
New Smarter Homes Hub launched to help residents improve home energy efficiency
At last week's Richmond Sustainability Forum, we officially launched the new Smarter Homes Hub and Handbook. The Hub supports residents on their retrofit journey, whether you're interested in small changes to improve everyday comfort, or large-scale renovations to future proof your home. You'll find information about the latest retrofit technologies, best practice guidance, and real life stories from Richmond residents who've already been through the process!
