Regent's Park Gates

The Royal Parks are running a consultation on the movement of vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians into and out of their parks including Regent’s Park with the potential outcome being the closure of gates into Regent’s Park. This could result in the displacement of traffic into the streets of NW8 and surrounding area with increase rat running and the subsequent deterioration of air quality. For this reason your local Councillors are running a petition opposing the potential gate closures. 

We would also encourage you to complete a survey on this issue the Royal Parks are running before the closing date of 14th July 2019. The survey can be found at www.royalparks.org.uk/movement or alternatively you can write a response and email it to [email protected]

Have your say, complete the petition and survey today!

BBC London: Westminster Council calls on the Mayor to support Soho businesses

Tuesday, 11 August, 2026
Cllr Tim Barnes explains that just two Westminster wards, West End and St James's, account for 26% of all "small crime" across the whole of London, which he says is exactly why some regulation of venues is necessary. He again pointed to the Mayor's record on transport as the bigger barrier to a good night out, saying Sadiq Khan "keeps cutting the night buses and won't bring in a late-night tube service on Thursdays."
