Bunhill, Barbican and Golden Lane Healthy Neighbourhood

The results of the engagement consultation was reported to the 4 July Streets and Walkways Sub Committee Agenda item 5.

Bunhill, Barbican and Golden Lane healthy neighbourhood

The scheme is a joint project between the City of London Corporation and Islington Council. It will prioritise street spaces for people walking cycling and using public transport and make these unique neighbourhoods more vibrant and successful places where people can lead active and healthy lives.

The project will explore opportunities to improve air quality and the environment for people walking and cycling on Beech Street.

There will be more engagement and consultations as we develop proposals for the area.

What is a healthy street approach?

This is a system of policies and strategies to help create a vibrant, successful city where people can live active, healthy lives by helping Londoners use cars less and walk, cycle and use public transport more. It aims to create streets that feel pleasant, safe, and attractive and identify the barriers to movement that restrict the community, particularly the most vulnerable.
