Walking & cycling during Covid-19 - our call to change streets for people

Submitted by julie on 14 May 2020

We have published our call to LBTH and TfL to act in the face of the pandemic, to reshape our streets with a people focussed approach.

We identify measures that are urgently needed:

  1. The removal of railings and street clutter to ensure social distancing,
  2. Bans on parking and loading to widen pavements around shops and supermarkets,
  3. The creation of temporary cycle lanes, the re-timing of pedestrian crossings and traffic intersections,
  4. Street closures for high streets.
