    Bexley continues to oppose the expansion of the ULEZ proposed by the Mayor of London. Here is the latest statement on the issue from the Leader of the Council.
    "The response to last year's consultation made clear that Londoners - especially in Bexley - are against the expansion of the ULEZ. We have withheld permission for the Mayor to put his ULEZ cameras on our street furniture or work on our roads. We are working in partnership with other boroughs to obtain further information from the Mayor on the lawfulness of his actions." Councillor Baroness O'Neill of Bexley OBE

    A big thank you to Louise Jackson, Lucy Crabb, Gina Crabb, & Katie Crabb for their volunteer litter pick of Danson Park. After their visit to Danson Park and seeing rubbish left behind from other park users they decided to do a volunteer litter pick. #NationalVolunteerWeek 👏
