Proposed Design Prescott Place

Lambeth Council is asking for feedback on designs for a Prescott Place Reimagined. The consultation closed on 9 June.

Streets Reimagined projects add new uses along street kerbs to make the most of high streets and side roads and make bus and train stations/stops more accessible and enjoyable. The goal is to support businesses, encourage leisure, and create spaces for residents to enjoy. By creating spaces where people can stop, rest, and socialise, the surrounding areas become easier to reach by walking, wheeling, scooting, or cycling. This makes the area more appealing and accessible, supporting local activity.

In a Streets Reimagined project, traffic management changes and different kerbside uses including cycle parking, parklets and greening are implemented through high quality temporary materials. 

Engagement on the proposed design will last three weeks, and end on 9 June. Take the survey and contribute your ideas.

The designs are based on previous engagement with local people and organisations in October 2024 to January 2025, in addition to analysis of data on traffic, travel patterns and air quality.

Policy background

In Lambeth, we have a bold vision in our Borough Plan to make neighbourhoods ‘fit for the future’; with cleaner, greener, and more vibrant communities where everyone can lead healthier lives. The implementation of key transport and climate policies including the award-winning Kerbside Strategy and Lambeth Climate Action Plan improve access, safety, and local business opportunities while promoting fairness and sustainability. Streets Reimagined schemes helps us achieve these goals by creating spaces that prioritize people, reduce pollution, and support local communities.

Proposed Design Engagement

19 May 2025 - 9 June 2025

We are at the Design Engagement stage of this project. 

We have shared with local people a proposed design for this project. The feedback gathered at this stage is used to help understand whether any changes might be needed to the proposed design, before a final decision on implementing a trial is made 

What happens next? 

All feedback received during the design engagement will be reviewed by council officers, and categorised into key themes so that they can be considered as part of creating a final design for this trial. This will take place in June 2025. 

The final design will be reviewed by the Cabinet Member for Clean Air and Sustainability before a decision is made on introducing a trial. This decision will be made through a formal “decision report” - to learn more about how the Council makes decisions like this please see here.  A decision report is expected in July 2025. 

Trial Start 

If a decision is made to launch the trial, there will be a 6-month period where formal representations can be made. Further details on this process will be shared through our key communication channels. 

If approved, a trial would be launched in September 2025.
