An area of Blackheath town centre has been closed this morning after reports that a vehicle hit a person.

There is no word yet on the victim’s condition. The road was closed and buses on diversion.
The centre of Blackheath is a pretty horrible area on foot with a large amount of traffic and numerous railings penning in pedestrians and taking what little paving space there is.
In recent weeks it was reported that Lewisham Council, Network Rail and Southeastern all sought to retain a car park in the area rather than build housing.
