Barnsbury and Laycock Liveable Neighbourhood

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

We would like to hear from local people about how we can improve the Barnsbury and Laycock area.

Our Barnsbury and Laycock Liveable Neighbourhood (read more about liveable neighbourhoods) aims to invest in your streets and public spaces for the benefit of the local community - to bring neighbours together, support local shops and make it safer for children to play and travel.

We want to make the area greener, healthier and more pleasant to spend time in, with new plants, trees and seating. We would also like to reduce road traffic to make local streets quieter, less polluted and safer to walk and cycle around.

How you can get involved

This is just the start of the conversation with you. The Barnsbury and Laycock Liveable Neighbourhood project is in its early stages and currently no proposals have been developed.

We want to hear what you think about how we should make improvements to streets and public spaces in the project area.

In this early stage of the project there are several ways you can have your say:

  • Attend a public event

We held a number of public events to explain the project and gather people's views about how we can improve the area.

We had an online (zoom) public meeting on Wednesday 22 February. You can download the slides and watch a video recording of the presentation.

We held in-person workshop events on Tuesday 7 and Monday 13 March.

Find out more about the events.

  • View comments on our interactive map

Our interactive map allowed people to drop a pin on our interactive map to tell us where and how you think we should improve streets and public spaces in the Barnsbury and Laycock project area. This map tool was open to the public until Sunday 9 April.

  • Email us

The project mailbox remains live. So, feel free to email our project team with views and comments by emailing barnsbury.laycock.LN@islington.gov.uk.
