Lambeth to repurpose at least a quarter of kerbside space to uses other than car parking.
Quote
The Kerbside Strategy outlines four priorities that will be applied to every street in the borough to enable accessible and active travel, create social spaces, increase climate resilience, and reduce traffic and emissions.

It will allow for the Sustainable urban Drainage Systems (SuDs) to reduce flood risk, plant new street trees, and create green spaces to provide shade on the hottest days of the year.

It would also mean a much more diverse kerbside with new shared scooter and bike bays, electric vehicle charging points, cycle hangers and support for businesses using cargo bikes and electric delivery vehicles.

Reclaimed kerbside space would make way for the largest community parklet programme in the capital to provide more green space for people to meet and socialise.
