Your June update on the West End Project

St Giles Circus taking shape

The new public space outside Tottenham Court Road station/Centrepoint is now nearly complete. Next we will be adding some more plants to the area and new paving on Denmark Street and Flitcroft Street (image courtesy of Almacanter). 

 

Wooden hoarding runs along the street leaving space on the pavement for people to walk past

Princes Circus update

The site set up on Princes Circus (the area between the British Museum and Covent Garden) is now finished. Next we will be painting the wooden hoarding, adding signage for the businesses and starting the demolition and removal of the old material for recycling.  


Streatery consultations

We are currently consulting on trialling the below Streateries which are in and around the WEP area for another 18 months. The consultations will be open until the 27th June 2022.

To comment on active Streateries use our commonplace questionnaire.

A new place to pause on Huntley Street

Huntley Street pocket park is now open, the road has been resurfaced and we have added plants, seating and feature lighting for people to enjoy in particular those being treated at, visiting or working at the UCLH buildings.

Behind the scenes tour

As part of the London Festival of Architecture we are running a behind the scenes guided
tour of Alfred Place and Whitfield Gardens. Join us for a walk around with representatives
from the designers LDA Design, construction lead Idverde and the Camden Council
Project team. Find out just what it takes to design, construct and deliver these new spaces
including changing Alfred Place from a road into a park, closing junctions to make pocket
parks and rejuvenating Whitfield Gardens.
