Pavement Obstruction
Can we talk about the construction traffic on Museum Street? It’s completely jammed every
morning now — their trucks stop on both sides, nothing moving. It’s a nightmare just trying
to walk down the pavement. Is this to do with our site or something else??

Same on the Great Russell end. I couldn’t get a cab to stop near my flat — he had to let me
off two blocks away because the entire street was gridlocked with trucks and a skip being
unloaded. It’s ridiculous. Surely this us against the rules for this kind of thing
And it’s not just vehicles — the site workers have started storing materials on the pavement!
I run a restaurant on West Central Street. My customers yesterday had to step into the road
just to get around it. Isn’t that a safety issue? How do we stop this bad behaviour?
I emailed Camden Council but no response. Surely there’s a proper traffic management plan
for this kind of thing. If so how do we enforce it? This street isn’t designed for constant
obstruction — it’s barely wide enough for two bikes to pass.
Agreed. We should raise this formally with both the council and the ward councillors. Happy
to co-sign something. This is supposed to be a conservation area, not a logistics hub.
We will take this up with the contractor when an exception occurs. Anything urgent- use the
hotline.– either they can do a better job of managing their traffic or we can take it up with an
enforcement office at the council

Which part of demolition will be the loudest?

Totally agree. I live above the café and I’ve seen delivery lorries just sitting in the middle of
the road, hazard lights on, with nowhere to go. Residents literally have to weave between
construction lorries just to get out of their own building.
