Transport improvement schemes

Transport improvement schemes are called Area Based Schemes. They usually take a number of years to complete and include public consultations.

Areas Based Schemes include:

• Camden and Kentish Town
• Chalk Farm and Primrose Hill
• the West End
• Holborn
• Farringdon and Kings Cross

They aim to:

• improve access to local services and facilities
• encourage more walking, cycling and public transport use
• improve road safety – for example by adding new crossing points 
• improve public spaces and streets – for example, planting trees and improving pavements
• designing streets and public spaces which reduce the change of crime and anti-social behaviour
• allow tourism and businesses to succeed

They can be funded by Camden Council, Transport for London and developer contributions.
