Muller Roundabout safety upgrades remain on hold as the council awaits external funding for any future schemes.
Councillor Adrian Page informed the Hanworth Area Forum that Transport for London (TfL) has no further updates on the Muller Roundabout, and any potential improvements are dependent on securing third-party funding. Hounslow Council has requested that TfL consider installing additional signage to improve driver awareness of the crossings, a request that has been passed to TfL's engineering team for review.
Councillor Page acknowledged the long-standing nature of the issue, stating, I realise this has been going on for an awful long time, and we all recognise that this is an accident waiting to happen.
He apologised that progress had been slow. This sentiment suggests a concern about potential future accidents, though no specific past incidents were cited as the direct prompt for the current urgency.
The meeting information implies that without secured funding, any future schemes were dependent on securing third-party funding.
Councillor Page's comment about it being an accident waiting to happen
further highlights the continued risk of accidents if upgrades are not implemented.
The forum heard that the matter is linked to the Muller Roundabout Action Plan, which was discussed during the meeting. The council is also working with TfL to improve driver awareness at the site.
Residents have previously raised concerns about pedestrian safety at the roundabout, with the issue being a recurring item on the forum's agenda. The lack of progress is attributed to the need for external funding to implement any significant changes.
The Hanworth Area Forum met on Thursday, 15 October 2026, to discuss various local issues, including infrastructure improvements. The update on Muller Roundabout was part of the action plan review section of the meeting. You can find more details in the Public reports pack.
