Consultation has concluded

As part of the Council’s commitment to promote walking and wheeling, proposals have been developed to improve the footways on The Ham, Brentford. The existing footways on The Ham are narrow, uneven and in poor condition. There are also significant obstructions on the footways from the presence of kerbs and poorly located street furniture.

Plans outlining the proposals can be found under "Consultation Plan" on the right hand side of this page and the main changes are summarised below:

  • Introduction of dropped kerbs at vehicle access points to off-street parking and properties.
  • Widening of the footways at most locations on The Ham where space permits.
  • Resurfacing of all footways on The Ham.
  • Creation of a new footway outside Teddies Nurseries.
  • Implementation of a new crossing point outside Teddies Nurseries.
  • Implementation of new planting area and 2 trees outside Teddies Nurseries.
  • Relocation of street furniture from the middle of the footway

These proposals aim to improve pedestrian accessibility on The Ham by creating more space, removing obstacles/obstructions and providing a decent quality footway surface, which would help to improve pedestrian safety and encourage people to walk and wheel. In order to create space for these improvements, three parking spaces on The Ham would need to be removed.
