Purpose

This report seeks approval from the Chief Engineer to implement
minor parking changes in line with our Safer Junctions Programme on
Leverton Street at the junction with Falkland Road as
outlined in Section 2 of this report. This includes the relocation
of a permit holder only parking space from the east side of the
street to the west side of the street and the introduction of
double yellow lines on both sides of the street.
 
A public consultation on the proposals detailed in this report
was undertaken from 25th January 2024 to 16th February
2024. A copy of the consultation letter which includes the
consultation drawing is provided as Appendix A at the rear

The report follows a consideration of relevant policies and the
public consultation on the proposals. The proposals meet the
objectives of We Make Camden by helping create clean, vibrant, and
sustainable places. The proposals also meet the objectives of the
Camden Transport Strategy and Road Safety Action Plan by helping to
make our streets and transport networks safe, accessible, and
inclusive for all.
