Safer, healthier, greener neighbourhoods

To ensure a safer, greener and healthier borough, and to tackle the big challenges ahead like the growing inequalities that hold people back from leading happy and healthy lives and the climate emergency, Ealing Council is exploring ways to improve neighbourhoods across the borough, to:

  • make people’s streets more attractive and enjoyable
  • help make walking, cycling and wheeling safer and easier
  • take positive action against climate change

The council has selected 7 locations across the borough, which have had issues with traffic or safety, or could be improved with urban greening, to develop plans to allocate more space for active travel, to mitigate the effects of climate change and create greener community spaces.

The 7 locations

You can find out more about the seven locations by using the links below.

Final plans will be uploaded to each location’s page, residents will be posted letters, and notices will be placed on lampposts in the area.

Residents will have the opportunity to share their views throughout the process.

Working with residents to develop plans

The council is committed to being open, transparent, and inclusive of local people, to make positive improvements that work for their street, following the principles set out in the Travel in Ealing Charter

All residents in the 7 locations will  be invited to help shape the plans through in-person sessions, where they will be able to ask the council about the plans, while sharing their views and ideas to help finalise plans. This report has been written by ECF, outlining the findings from the overall consultation

To fully understand the issues with traffic in these areas, the council will carry out traffic and pedestrian data collection, which will be shared with residents.
