Stuart King's Roehampton Vale survey

This survey is divided into sections dealing with different issues:

* The A3 itself and the physical environment around you;
* The areas of derelict land ASDA is responsible for;
* The underpass and getting to and from ASDA;
* The grassed open space

You can also have your say on general issues at the end: either to talk more about some of the questions I've asked or to raise ideas or concerns I haven't asked about.

And finally...

Roehampton Vale is one of the areas we find quite hard to contact. A lot of you are often out or away and many of you have, for understandable reasons, gated-off your homes preventing access. It’s also not an ideal environment to talk about issues and concerns. Because of this, it would be really useful if you could let us know:
