High Holborn update >>

Look both ways

Please take care when crossing High Holborn and remember to now...

look both ways for traffic

There are a number of pedestrian crossings along the road which we would encourage you to use, and we will have stewards on the street to remind people of the change for the first few days.


Advice for cyclists

The road layout will have changed so please

  • take extra care
  • take note of all signs
  • watch for pedestrians and drivers who may not yet be used to two-way traffic

Any cyclists heading north up Shaftesbury Avenue who wish to go east should turn right onto High Holborn to continue their journey.

Cyclists will be able to use High Holborn in both directions between Shaftesbury Avenue and Museum Street.  

TFL have quieter cycle routes on their website which includes a nearby link from the south.
