Regent’s Park Area Safe and Healthy Streets - Engagement Update
Camden will shortly be publishing a report on the engagement work that has taken place in the Regent’s Park Area in relation to the Council’s Safe and Healthy Streets Programme over the last two years. The report will include design recommendations for improving road safety and the area’s public realm. These recommendations will be reviewed by Camden alongside feedback from the Young Urban Designers Programme, which is seeking input from young people in the area and will end in Spring 2024.
As part of the review, Camden will evaluate the feasibility of the different design solutions proposed. This includes how designs might impact traffic, road safety, air pollution and placemaking in the area. The Council will then make a decision on which schemes to take forward for implementation. The selected schemes will be funded by the HS2 Road Safety Fund. Delivery will likely begin within 18 months of the publication of the engagement report and will be subject to further public consultation.
For more information, please see the Regent’s Park Area Safe and Healthy Streets Commonplace Page: https://eustonengagementhub.commonplace.is/en-GB/proposals/regents-park-area-safe-and-healthy-streets-engagement-update/step1
Get involved in developing proposals for long-term road safety improvements in the Regent’s Park Area.
We want you to get involved in developing proposals for long-term road safety improvements in the Regent’s Park Area.
Background
People living close to HS2 construction sites have seen their lives disrupted with additional lorry traffic, road closures and construction noise.
To mitigate against this, Camden Council has secured £2.4 million in funding from the HS2 Road Safety Fund which can be used for road safety interventions, especially with regard to improvements for pedestrians and cyclists, including traffic calming, safer crossings, and improvements to junctions and routes for pedestrians and cyclists.
We need you
Camden wants to work closely with the local community to understand local issues, opportunities and develop potential changes to the Regent’s Park Area.
Complete our short survey and have your say on a positive legacy for the neighbourhood following the completion of HS2. Visit https://eustonengagementhub.commonplace.is/en-GB/map/map-regents-park-area-safe-and-healthy-streets. The survey closes on 4th June 2023.
If you have any further questions about the project or would like to request the survey in a different format, please email safetravel@camden.gov.uk

Euston Healthy Streets Vision
Euston Healthy Streets (EHS) is a joint project between Transport for London (TfL) and the London Borough of Camden (LBC). Its purpose is to carry out a strategic review of the streets surrounding Euston Station (Eversholt Street, Hampstead Road and Euston Road) to design safe, healthy and inclusive high-quality streets that maximise public benefit and support local communities . LBC and TfL have developed a joint vision for the three key streets with high level vision statements for each of them.

George Mews Greening - Concept Designs
Camden Council is improving green spaces at George Mews to help reduce the local impacts of HS2 construction works and loss of public open space. Working with Groundwork London, we are now pleased to share the first concept designs, informed by a previous consultation carried out in late 2017.
We want to make sure that these proposals for green space improvements meet the needs of the local community and will benefit those who use them. We would therefore like to invite local residents, community groups and children to attend additional activities where you can share your thoughts on the proposed improvements.

View the updated designs
We are very pleased to let you know that the updated designs for open space improvements are ready to view. To view the designs, please navigate to the proposals page here.
Groundwork London have updated the designs based on the feedback you shared with us earlier this year. You can read the full engagement report here , or by visiting https://www.groundwork.org.uk/projects/camden-six-sites/ .
We have listened to your ideas and priorities for Hope Gardens. At this stage, we need to temporarily pause further design work for Hope Gardens to ensure any other local changes are linked into the landscaping works. Further updates will follow once we have a better idea of any future changes.
Would you like to speak to the design team? To share any final comments please drop us an e-mail and we will be in touch to set up a convenient time for a telephone conversation. Please contact Jenny at Jenny.Dunn@groundwork.org.uk
