Islington Greener Together

Islington Council launched Round Two of the Islington Greener Together programme in February 2024, inviting residents, businesses, and community groups, with support from their neighbours, to submit ideas to green publicly accessible spaces in their neighbourhoods. With the support of the council, local people can bring their ideas to life and make their streets greener. One of these streets is Linton Street, where local people have told us that they would like to introduce greening at the junction with New North Road.


Linton Street

The project site is located at the junction of Linton Street and New North Road, within the St Mary's and St James' Ward.



Co-design workshop

We held a workshop on Wednesday 22 October 2025. During the workshop, attendees shared their ideas for where and what types of changes they would like to see in the area. The suggestions made will be used to help shape the initial proposal for Linton Street.


Initial design proposal

Our initial design proposes the following on Linton Street:

  • New in-ground planting beds, joined with the existing planting beds, to enhance biodiversity and contribute to the overall greening of the streetscape.
  • Widening of the entrance to the cycle path between Linton Street and New North Road.
  • Creation of a new cycle path through the proposed inground planting beds, connecting Linton Street with New North Road.
  • Introduction of a new tree in the central in‑ground planting bed.
  • Introduction of new double yellow lines on both Linton Street and New North Road.




Tell us what you think about the proposal

To share your views on the initial design proposal, please complete our survey by midnight on Sunday 25 January 2026.

In addition to the survey, we will also be holding an engagement session on Wednesday 21 January 2026, between 6pm and 6.45pm. During the session, attendees can share their feedback and ask officers questions regarding the initial design proposal. The feedback received via the survey and during the engagement session will help inform any changes to the final design proposal for Linton Street.

If you would like to attend the workshop, please register your interest by following the link here (External link) and completing the form. You can also sign up in-person at Islington South Library (N1 2SL). We will confirm your place and details of the location by email or phone; please only attend if you receive this confirmation, as spaces are limited. Priority will be given to residents and businesses within close proximity to the project.

Please do check your junk/spam email folder as the event approaches, as invitations have occasionally ended up in these locations. If you have any issue or questions please do contact IGTproject@islington.gov.uk

Next steps

Following the feedback period (Monday 12 January 2026 – Sunday 25 January 2026), we will use the feedback received to help inform any changes to the final design proposal for Linton Street. Once the design has been finalised, we will aim to begin delivery of the proposal in summer 2026.
