Camden Council is set to implement a trial for a car-free Camden High Street later this year, following strong public support for pedestrianisation. This initiative aims to expand pedestrian space significantly and is supported by funding from TfL. The trial will remove motor vehicles along a key section of the high street, while buses will redirect accordingly. Feedback and data will be collected throughout the trial period to assess impacts, with future considerations for making the closure permanent. This project aligns with broader efforts to create a Low Emission Neighbourhood in Camden Town.
The trial, which will come into effect later this year, will be brought in under an Experimental Traffic Order, which will last for a maximum of 18 months.
Will Norman, London's Walking and Cycling Commissioner, said: "Removing traffic will improve air quality and enable the high street to thrive as local residents and visitors enjoy a safer, cleaner and more attractive environment."
