Culmington Road
Making Culmington Road safer and more pleasant for residents
Ealing Council is exploring ways to improve neighbourhoods across the borough by repurposing public spaces to:
- make people’s streets more attractive and enjoyable
- help make walking, cycling and wheeling safer and easier
- take positive action against climate change
Proposed improvements to Culmington Road
- better connection between Lammas Park and Walpole Park
- enhance biodiversity, making the road greener and more pleasant with plants and a community garden
- better pedestrian crossings
- improving the junction at Churchfield Road to make it safer for pedestrians
The council is committed to being open, transparent, and inclusive in how it works with local people, to make improvements in the right way to where they live, following the principals set out in the Travel in Ealing Charter
Traffic levels
Data was collected in July 2024 to understand the level of traffic and to inform suitable interventions in the local area. Traffic data was collected at the Culmington Road junction with Churchfield Road, at the Culmington Road junction with Uxbridge Road and at the junction between Lammas Park Gardens and Elers Road. Also, pedestrian counts took place between the two parks to assess movement patterns. Data will also be collected once the scheme has been completed to monitor and assess any changes. Email begreen@ealing.gov.uk if you would like to get a copy of the data sheets.
Public engagement
Council officers met with residents in two in-person events in October 2024 to talk about to talk about the proposed plans and residents were also invited to share their views via email at begreen@ealing.gov.uk
Results and next steps
Engagement results
Ealing Council worked with engagement specialists ECF, to support the in-person events and produce a report with the results of the engagement and surveys
From the feedback we understand that some residents would like to see a width restriction on Culmington Road.
The council would not be able to deliver this as part of this scheme as this needs more baseline data to understand HGV traffic flow.
Statutory consultation
The proposals for the scheme were updated based on the engagement report and a statutory consultation ran from Wednesday 14 May to Wednesday 4 June 2025.
Following positive feedback from the consultation, no substantive changes were made to the design of the improvements. The only changes were minor adjustments related to planting types and sizes, owing to improving visibility and sight lines for road users.
Improvement works
Culmington Road/Churchfield Road/Elers Road/Lammas Park Road and Culmington Road/Churchfield Road improvement works will begin on 20 October, with construction expected to last approximately 9 weeks.
Construction will begin with Phase 1, which is the Elers Road and Lammas Park Gardens junction, followed by Phase 2 which is the Churchfield Road junction.
To ensure the safety of both the public and the workforce, traffic management measures will be in place throughout the duration of the works. Please be aware that temporary footway closures and diversions may be necessary to facilitate construction activities.
