Margaret Mullane, deputy of Dagenham and Rainham, said he had joined the calls of local people for security improvements at the crossroads between Rainham Road South and Reeced Road.
It occurs after the constituents told him that they felt they were “putting their lives at risk” when crossing the crossing.
Barking and Dagenham Council have now confirmed that it will make the installation of a pedestrian that crosses a “priority” as part of broader works to improve the union.
Mrs. Mullane added that the ongoing regeneration of the area, including the opening of “fantastic film studies,” the footsteps in the area had increased, making improvements in the safety of “very necessary” pedestrians.
“I have said Bone that design and planning are underway, and the work is expected to be carried out within the financial year 2025/2026,” he added.
Earlier this year, Eastbrook Studios in Yew Tree Avenue opened his doens, a new “world class” film and television studio.
Barking and Dagenham Council have said that their original plans to remodel the crossing were delayed after it lost transport through London (TFL) financing the Covid pandemic.
The local authority said that financing to improve the crossing would now come from the bus priority program, a TFL scheme that aims to improve bus reliability.
A spokesman added that first, the Company of Regeneration of Absolute Property of the Council would deliver the project.
