Street Improvements including Boundary Roads

We are consulting on whether to make the LTN permanent. If this is realised then we will look to upgrade the current temporary layout to a permanent one that consolidates and enhances the space including new seating, cycle parking, tree planting and play areas.

To help with this discussion we have created a visualisation of what permanent changes could look like. It is important to note this visualisation is intended to start a conversation around the space and would be subject to change and further refinement. We are open to ideas and will need the community to share their feedback and ideas to help design these spaces.

Lambeth and London-wide changes that will impact transport and air quality in the area:

• Ongoing monitoring of traffic volumes in the area
• Further improvements to bus fleet to make them low-emission
• General uptake of electric/ zero emissions vehicles
• More people choosing to walk and cycle each year
• The council's operations will be carbon neutral by 2030
