Connectivity
Bromley already has fast rail connections to central London.
164
Bromley doesn’t need a slow / metro connection to London.
16
The Underground is slower than National Rail trains over a longer distance.

If the extension went to Bromley, services would be less reliable.

Reasons for not
supporting extension to
Bromley
Preference
Project cost
Suggestions for other /
complementary
transport schemes
Negative Impact on public transport service levels
2
Oppose removal of National Rail services from Hayes.
6
TOTAL
Worsen traffic congestion
An Underground connection is needed to revitalise other parts of southeast
London.
The transport connections in Camberwell / Peckham are not as good as in
Bromley and Beckenham.
200
1
25
5
Bromley centre is in decline.
3
Bromley is too far out of central London to need an Underground connection.
21
National Rail connections from Bromley South are sufficient.
Demand between Beckenham and Bromley is already met by bus / rail
services.
Bromley Centre is overcrowded.
4

Bromley extension will delay process further
1
Cannot see the benefit.
13
TOTAL
Inner London areas need the investment / improvement before areas further
out.
Support extension option 1b.
102
26
2
Support terminating extension in Bromley Centre.
1
The option that doesn't stop at Bromley is sufficient.
1
Link to Bromley town centre is unnecessary.
38
Oppose extension of Underground past Lewisham.
11
The extension to Hayes should happen before any extension to Bromley.
4
Extend for five miles then reflect on progress
4
Need more information
5
Support extension 1a and 1b
2
The benefits to people who travel to Waterloo or Charing Cross are marginal.
1
TOTAL
Cost of scheme is too expensive.
95
The scheme is not cost effective.
15
The money is better spent elsewhere.
4
Extending as far as Bromley will put pressure on the budget.
5
Waste of money.
2
The project would need a significant budget.
1
The project will draw funds away from other projects.
1
TOTAL
Terminate extension in Streatham.
The extension should end at Lewisham initially with further extension in the
future.
Using a bus to cover the route would be cheaper.
91
Consider better services from Bromley North.
12
Invest in more urgent public transport issues.
1
Invest in cycling infrastructure.
1
The scheme should be focussed more centrally.

Crowding / congestion
Suggested destinations
Need an extension to New Eltham more than to Bromley.
2
A more direct route from Lewisham to Bromley than via Beckenham should be
considered.
2
Extend DLR to Bromley from Lewisham / Greenwich / Woolwich.
7
Additional National Rail branch to Streatham via Camberwell / Herne Hill.
2
Extra car parking / bus routes should be provided at Beckenham Junction
where there is Underground access.
3
Extend Underground to Dulwich, Tulse Hill and Norwood
1
Extend Northern line to Epson
1
Proposal should be Overground
8
Build National Rail Spur at Beckenham
1
Better to invest in old infrastructure than build new
1
Reinstate National Rail London- Bromley North Line, via grove park
7
Overground service should run to Brixton and Brockley
1
Underground route from Lewisham- Lee High Road- (Surface) Hither Green,
Grove Park, Sundridge, Bromley North, (Tunnel) Bromley South –Hayes.
1
Proposal should be all National Rail
2
Extend Northern line to Sutton
1
Reinstate Connex South Eastern route
1
Need an extension to Sidcup more than to Bromley.
1
TOTAL
If the Bakerloo line is extended too far, the rest of the line will suffer.
Extension beyond Lewisham will increase congestion on the Underground in
Zone 1.
There is already a rail connection, which is not at capacity.
