New ELL station for Surrey Canal agreed
It's not often that Brockley Central gets to apologise for our undue pessimism, but it looks like the huge masterplan for Surrey Canal, including a new station on the East London Line, is to get the go ahead, despite our fears that the developers would struggle after public funding was denied for the station. The News Shopper reports that Lewisham Council granted planning permission this week and the developers have agreed to underwrite a new station:
A MASSIVE £850m development around Millwall’s football ground has been approved - with the developer agreeing to fund a new station.
Lewisham Council’s strategic planning committee resolved to grant developer Renewal's applcation at a meeting on October 13.
