Belsize Lane Healthy School Street

Consulting with you

Over three weeks during October and November 2022 we ran a consultation on on our proposals to implement Healthy School Street restrictions on Belsize Lane (outside St Christopher’s School) and to add two bike hangars on each of Belsize Lane and Wedderburn Road. 

Thank you to everyone who took the time to share their views. We have now made the decision to make the following changes:

What is changing:

• Introducing a new trial Healthy School Street scheme between 8am - 9.15am and 3pm - 4pm, Monday to Friday, during school term time only at Belsize Lane between the junctions of Wedderburn Road and Ornan Road, outside St Christopher’s School

Exemptions

The following vehicles are eligible for an exemption from the timed Healthy School Street restrictions:

• Vehicles registered to properties and businesses on the sections of Belsize Lane  with the restrictions.
• Any vehicle being used for ambulance, fire brigade or policing purposes.
• Refuse collection vehicles.
• Door to door services such as Plus Bus and Dial A Ride.
• Blue Disabled Badge holders that require access.
• Vehicles belonging to parents or carers of pupils of St Christopher’s School that have a disability that prevents them from walking, cycling, or scooting to school. This exemption will only apply to the school being accessed.
• Exemptions for taxis or other door to door transportation for elderly or disabled residents, and their carer(s) (please contact us using the details below to find out more).

If you would like to register your vehicle for an exemption, please visit camden.gov.uk/healthy-school-streets

Give us your views!

Once the Healthy School Street is up and running you can share your views below through a few quick questions. These questions are our way of checking in with local communities.

While we will not be responding individually to suggestions, all the information you provide will help us to improve the scheme and be used to help us decide at the end of the trial whether or not to keep the changes.
