Consultation is open for proposed changes to Balderton Street, Great Titchfield Street, and Hanway Street / Rathbone Place / Rathbone Street

The following consultations will be open through 30th August on Commonplace.

Balderton Street

At Balderton Street, the OSP team proposes to change traffic flow to one-way, southbound only between North Row and Brown Hart Gardens.

The proposal is part of the Oxford Street scheme which aims to enhance the public realm along the street while improving safety, accessibility and comfort for all. This traffic change will have no impact on the number of parking bays in the area, but restrict access to some bays to southbound moving vehicles only. Overall, the scheme will have very limited impact on through traffic, although it does aim to reduce confusion on Balderton Street which currently provides a constrained cul-de-sac for northbound vehicles to turn around as North Row is already a one-way street.

Great Titchfield Street

The Oxford Street Programme is seeking your feedback on the proposed changes to Great Titchfield Street aimed to enhance and improve the pedestrian experience on the street.

The proposed changes, developed in collaboration with FitzWest Neighbourhood Forum, include the installation of bollards across the carriageway just south of the Foley Street/ Langham Street junction, stopping access for vehicles while allowing access for cycles. and the conversion of the section of the street between the Foley Street/ Langham Street junction to Riding House Street to two-way traffic.

Hanway Place / Rathbone Street / Rathbone Place

In collaboration with Camden Council, the Oxford Street Programme team proposes traffic changes to Rathbone Street, Rathbone Place, Hanway Street and Hanway Place that will enable traffic and public realm improvements to Oxford Street.

The proposal includes:
• Reverse motor traffic to northbound only on Rathbone Place,
• Reverse motor traffic to southbound only on Rathbone Street,
• Maintain permissions for cycling in both directions on both Rathbone Place and Rathbone Street,
• Extend restrictions on vehicle access from Oxford Street onto Hanway Street,
• Reverse traffic flow on Hanway Place to maintain 24/7 vehicle access to this street and Hanway Street.
