Safety and security in Wandsworth Town are key priorities in our business plan (2022-2027):
Business Crime Reduction Partnership
We fund the Business Crime Reduction Partnership for Wandsworth Town to ensure businesses are protected from local crime and anti-social behaviour.
Pedestrianisation
We consulted with businesses and residents on the pedestrianisation of Old York Road. As a result, the street is now closed to cars and buses, but remains open to cyclists, in order to drive footfall and aid local hospitality venues.
CCTV
As part of our ongoing commitment to safety and security in the town centre, we’re reviewing areas where CCTV could be improved to safeguard businesses and the customers using them.
Traffic
We are in a unique position to lobby Wandsworth Council and Transport for London (TfL) on traffic measures in the town centre. We want to campaign for traffic initiatives that makes roads safer and less congested for motorists, pedestrians and cyclists alike.
