 Have your say on Lambeth Bee Roads
Lambeth Bee Roads is a series of proposed greening projects to convert grassland and tarmac alongside roads into meadows, rain gardens, and wildflower planting. The Bee Roads will be on land managed by Lambeth housing and highways. We are interested in your opinions and your help on the Lambeth Bee Roads. Please share your views by completing our online survey.
The consultation runs from 24 November to 19 December 2021.
We would like to create a series of new habitat which begins to link together existing sites for wildlife, and helps to manage rainwater, while improving the borough for local people. Please have a look at our initial overview of Lambeth Bee Roads projects to see the proposed locations, and planting methodology.

Have your say on the Oasis Johanna Development Scheme in Waterloo
Oasis Community Learning and Lambeth Council invite you to have your say on the Oasis Johanna Development Scheme in Waterloo. Please share your views by attending one of our public consultation meetings and/or sharing your views with us online.
The consultation runs from 15 November to 13 December 2021.
Initial conversations with stakeholders took place in 2017 about the opportunity of creating a joint educational and community facility at the Oasis Johanna site. Within that time, we have been moving forward and we’re now excited to bring you the updated indicative plans, ideas, and concepts for discussion. These will be displayed during our four repeated consultation sessions outlined below.
We want to give our children and the whole Waterloo neighbourhood enhanced opportunities for education, training and increased business, through a new ‘state-of-the-art’ educational facility.
We want to create a 21st Century school, a dedicated Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Resource Base, as well as a Multi-Use Games Area (which will be available for use to the community outside of the school day). Other facilities to be included are a permanent home for Waterloo library and a restaurant offering training opportunities to local people. The scheme will also deliver new connections from Baylis Road to Lower Marsh increasing safety and vibrancy, as well as, responding to and respecting the wider needs of the Waterloo community.

Have your say on the Streatham Hill Low Traffic Neighbourhood
We’re asking people who live, work and travel in the trial low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) to share their views by doing a survey. This is because we’re considering making the changes permanent after monitoring the LTN and finding that it has been reducing traffic in the area.
The consultation runs from 15 November to 19 December 2021.
Our monitoring has found that:
- The overall volume of motor traffic recorded across all streets within and on the boundaries of the LTN has reduced by 5%, around 6,100 vehicles less a day.
- Traffic on internal streets has decreased by 54%, it has increased by 13% on external streets (boundary roads) Traffic volumes have decreased by 90% on Hillside Road and by 76% on Hailsham Avenue. It has increased by 7% on Leigham Vale.
- Cycling has increased by 54% on internal roads, and by 57% on external roads.
- All the places where we analysed air quality that were classed as sensitive, such as outside schools and care homes, had air quality within legal limits. This includes sensitive sites on boundary roads.
- Overall air quality in Lambeth is improving, partly due to measures such as the Ultra-Low Emission Zone. We expect to see greater improvements over time.

Streatham Wells Low Traffic Neighbourhood
We’re planning to create a new low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) in Streatham Wells, because many local streets are clogged by motor vehicles using them as a shortcut. By reducing traffic, we can support more people to walk, wheel, scoot and cycle.
We also want to make the area more climate friendly. We can do this by planting trees and making other changes to prepare for extreme weather caused by climate change, like heavy rain and higher temperatures.
Before we introduce the LTN we want to hear about your experiences of travelling around the area and what ideas you have to make it work better for
everyone.
