zebra crossing on the Kingston Road arm of Fountain Roundabout

1 story · 1 council

A zebra crossing on the Kingston Road arm of Fountain Roundabout has been recommended for council funding following 25 casualties.

In November 2026, the New and Old Malden Neighbourhood Committee recommended a zebra crossing for the Kingston Road arm of Fountain Roundabout. This recommendation followed 24 collisions at the junction between 2020 and 2024, which resulted in 25 people being injured or killed. Councillors are asking the council to fund the crossing, as Transport for London is not expected to provide funding.

The recommendation from the New and Old Malden Neighbourhood Committee will now be considered by the Place Committee. This committee will decide whether to approve the proposal for the council to fund the installation of the zebra crossing.

The proposed zebra crossing is intended for the western, Kingston Road arm of Fountain Roundabout. It aims to improve safety at a junction where 11 pedestrians were among the 25 casualties recorded over a four-year period.
