How is Camden getting healthier?

Many people are drawn to live in areas where the local authorities actively work to improve health and wellbeing. Camden ticks the right boxes in this regard. The council has been doing a lot of good work to make the borough healthier and more sustainable. We want to have a closer look here, then if you invest and want some help with estate management in Camden, we have the ideal services.

Active travel

Estate management CamdenOne of Camden’s biggest successes is revolutionising how people travel in the borough. The goal is to create healthier, more welcoming streets and centres. Impressively, the Council claims 87% of trips are now sustainable. This includes more people walking, cycling, and using public transport instead of relying on cars. In fact, car ownership in the borough has fallen more than any other area in the city, reducing traffic volumes and improving air quality. Harmful emissions of carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides are both down (32% and 73% respectively from 2016-2024).

Camden now has one of the highest levels of active travel in Inner London. Impressively, over 60% of locals now live within easy touching distance of the cycling network. More and more people are choosing to cycle, taking advantage of better infrastructure and safer streets.

The Council is also committing to doing more to ensure they achieve their goals for a healthier, more sustainable borough. For example, they are planning to install more crossings and dropped kerbs to make it safer for pedestrians and cyclists. In addition, they’re looking to improve the bus network, including moving to greener electric buses. Plus, there is a target to make spaces outside schools greener and safer. If all of this makes you invest, talk to us about estate management in Camden and our other services.

Improvements for Phoenix Road

Another fantastic piece of news is Camden Council gave approval for greening Phoenix Road. They had been doing a number of trial improvements to make the areas greener, safer, and healthier. Following feedback from locals, the decision has now been made to make them permanent.

There are a number of fantastic details about the improvements for the area. For example, there is a new green open space, wider, greener pavements, and traffic control measures. There will also be some significant changes as part of making the trial permanent. This includes new zones for activities, space for play, and more references to the heritage of the area.

The changes are fantastic for Phoenix Road and the wider area. Crucially, they make it safer to walk and cycle in the area. The green space is fantastic too because it is an area that is sadly lacking in parks and open areas. It is now a lovely green link between the major stations at St. Pancras and Euston.
