Bermondsey Street Pavement Improvements

A closure to motor vehicles was introduced on Bermondsey Street, between Leathermarket Street and Whites Grounds, during the Covid-19 pandemic. 

Between September '24 and February '25 construction works were undertaken to make the closure permanent and remove the temporary blocks on the street. The works included pavement widening and improvements to the cycle facility over the closure.

We are proposing to continue the pavement widening north bound starting at Tyers Gate and continuing up the the junction of Bermondsey Street/Crucifix Lane/ St Thomas Street and Snowsfield.

Our plans propose to:

• Improve pavement widths on the west side of the street.
• Introduce a continuous pavement.
• Create a level walking surface.
