Northumberland Place Play Street Public Consultation

Northumberland Place Play Street Public Consultation is open from 8th December 2023 - 2nd January 2024

A Public consultation is taking place between 8th December until 2nd January 2024 for a proposed play street on Northumberland Place, between Talbot Road and Artesian Road. The Play Street would give pedestrians priority over traffic in the Spring and Summer months each year.

The goal of Westminster City Council is always to ensure that we do what we can to bring you the people in the community closer together. Opening up the streets for children to play and providing a safe opportunity for residents to meet and connect has proven to build a higher sense of trust and belonging. We take what you have to say very seriously so please do take the survey.
