St Peter's Area Improvements
We want to make street improvements in the St Peter’s area
As part of our efforts to create a greener, healthier and more child-friendly borough, Islington Council is looking to make improvements to the street environment in St Peter’s, with support from your local St Peter’s & Canalside and St Mary’s & St James’ ward councillors.
We introduced the St Peter’s Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN), first as a trial in 2020 and later made permanent in 2022 after consultation, to create cleaner, less congested and more people-friendly streets in the area.
Now we want to enhance the existing measures, creating a greener, more welcoming and accessible place for everyone, as well as supporting local businesses.
The first measures we are proposing are to improve a section of St Peter’s Street (1) and the Packington Street/Prebend Street junction area (2), as shown on the map:
To help us create designs for these improvements, we want to hear from local people about how you use these spaces and to hear your ideas about what you would like to see there.
See the "More Information about our proposed projects" section to find out more about where we want to make these improvements and how you can tell us your views and ideas, including in-person drop-ins at the sites at specific times.
Get involved
We would like to hear from residents, businesses and other members of the local community about how you would like us to improve these spaces.
Give us feedback by filling in our survey:
You can fill in our short survey about one or both of the projects. We encourage you to tell us your views on either or both of our proposed projects by filling in our survey by Sunday 20 July 2025.
The survey can also be completed on the back of the scheme leaflet if you have received one through your door. You can either take a photo of your completed leaflet survey and send back to us via our email address (stpeters.projects@islington.gov.uk), or return it by post (Environment, 1 Cottage Road, London N7 8TP) or in person to the following locations:
- The ARC Community Centre, 98b St Paul Street, N1 7DF
- South Library, 115-117 Essex Road, N1 2SL
If you have not received a leaflet, and would like a paper copy, you can collect one from the library or community centre listed above.
Come and talk to us:
Council officers will be at these locations on the following dates/times:
- St Peter's Street by the junction with Rheidol Terrace - Tuesday 15 July between 12pm and 1pm
- Packington Street by the junction with Prebend Street - Wednesday 16 July between 5pm and 6pm
You are welcome to come and tell us your views and ask any questions in person.
Next steps
Once we have heard your views and ideas on how we can improve these spaces, we will use your feedback to develop designs for consultation. Please check back to this page for updates.
