A scheme to improve traffic in Wandsworth High Street and rejuvenate the town centre is being developed. We currently expect to start the work in 2021.

The development of Ram Quarter, alongside Wandsworth Council's plans to regenerate the town centre, will transform the local area for residents and create new opportunities for businesses.

As part of these changes, we have a plan to decrease traffic dominance in Wandsworth High Street and help rejuvenate the area.

Our proposals include:  

  • Reducing through traffic in the town centre, leaving it free for buses, cyclists and local access
  • Widening footways
  • Improving the local environment

A public consultation on the changes proposed for Wandsworth town centre ended in January 2016. The consultation report is on the Wandsworth town centre consultation page.

The timeline for this scheme includes a compulsory purchase order (CPO) process to get the additional land we need - this can take 18-24 months.
