REMOVE IT.

WE DO NOT WANT IT.

WE DO NOT NEED THIS in our residential area and daily commute from Beckenham, Somerfield, Sydenham, Cashmere, let's say NO to this new ad tower in our residential area. It is not only ugly and destroys the character of the intersection, it is also dangerous as it distracts pedestrians while crossing, cyclists while cycling, and drivers while driving. Add the light pollution and the 10sec ad change, we simply do not want a massive TV installed in our residential neighbourhood, showing brainless ads.

For those of you who would like to read more - change.org generated this for a better performance:

Our peaceful residential area has recently been disrupted by the unwelcome presence of a massive advertisement tower. This tower has been erected without proper consultation with the community, and it stands as a glaring eyesore, overshadowing our homes and the natural beauty of our neighborhood.

For many years, our area has been a haven of tranquility, a place where families can thrive and children can play without the intrusion of commercial clutter. However, with the installation of this advertisement tower, our community's aesthetic and serenity have been compromised. This towering structure not only blocks scenic views but also contributes to light pollution, detracts from property values, and undermines the character of our tightly-knit community.

According to numerous studies, visual pollution such as advertisement towers can have negative impacts on mental health, causing increased stress and anxiety among those subjected to their constant presence. This is not just about personal inconvenience; it's about the well-being of our entire community.

We urge the local government and relevant authorities to listen to the voices of their constituents. It's time to prioritize the needs and preferences of those who live here, rather than allowing corporate interests to take precedent. We propose that this advertisement tower be removed and that future installations of such structures involve direct community engagement and approval processes.

Join us in standing up for our neighborhood's integrity and quality of life. Your support is crucial for us to show the decision-makers that we deserve to live in an environment free from unwanted commercial intrusions. Please sign this petition to demand the removal of the advertisement tower and help restore the harmony of our community.
