Concerns over transport in Merton can be voiced at a public meeting on June 25.

Public transport providers will be at the meeting in the Civic Centre to gauge opinion and listen to ideas on how services in and out of the area can be improved.

Transport for London and commuter watchdog Travelwatch are to attend.

A question and answer session will follow a presentation on upgrades to the Northern Line.

Councillor David Dean, who will chair the meeting, said: “The transport system in Merton is crucial for economic and social welfare.

"Residents pay a lot of money in tax and fares and they would like solutions to overcrowding amongst other concerns.”

The meeting, open to all, will begin at 7.30pm in the civic centre.
