  • Hawley school development proposals

    Hawley is a nursery and infants’ school in Camden Town and is the only infants’ school in Camden without a linked junior school. Hawley Infants’ School has been on its current site for more than 100 years and is popular, with a village feel. However, the school and its classrooms are very small compared with other infant schools, the play area is cramped and there is not enough space for children to play team games. The existing school site is surrounded by sites with planning... More

  • Fitzrovia (West of Tottenham Court Road) – area improvements consultation

    Most of the time the area of west Fitzrovia experiences relatively light traffic - one of its attractions in such a central London area. This is delivered at least in part by the one way systems throughout the wider Fitzrovia area that are designed to discourage through traffic. Unfortunately this also reduces the permeability for cycling, despite many of the streets being ideal quiet roads within central London. However, when queuing occurs on Euston Road (A501), Warren Street is used as... More
