Making our streets greener

Southwark is one of the most densely populated areas in the country. The space we have is precious. The Streets for People initiative aims to change how we travel and use our streets. 

Its goal is to create healthier neighbourhoods, cleaner air, thriving town centres and safer roads, with less traffic. 

This means you can enjoy:

• cycling in Southwark
