Summer 2023 Consultation Report

In Summer 2023, the Programme consulted on five of its schemes – public realm schemes for Oxford Street and Oxford Circus, along with highway schemes Marylebone / Fitzrovia, Oxford Street West and Eastcastle Street. The consultation aimed to gauge support for scheme proposals and solicit ideas and feedback on design proposals from local community members, wider stakeholders and other interested parties.  

Through the six-week consultation period, OSP received 1612 questionnaire responses, 27 direct emails of written feedback, over 180 attendees of in person presentations, over 500 people engaged at three separate markets across the borough, 12,800 postcards delivered to local residences and 20,755 views of the programme website. 

All feedback gathered in response from stakeholders and the community has been and will continue to be a guiding influence behind the programme’s design, execution, and maintenance. As part of the Fairer Westminster strategy, the following document shares how the Programme has considered and, in many cases, integrated public input received through consultation, into the latter design stages for the highway schemes and the Oxford Street Stage 2 design process.
