Mildmay Liveable Neighbourhood

Find out what we aim to achieve for the Mildmay Liveable Neighbourhood, see our designs that we have consulted on, and next steps for the project.

As part of our efforts to create a greener, healthier borough we are introducing a liveable neighbourhood in Mildmay.

We announced the funding for this project in 2020, but it was delayed because of the Covid pandemic. Since then, we've listened to your feedback over two rounds of engagement. Based on what you told us, we created final designs for the neighbourhood and held a public consultation on these designs in September and October 2023.

We have now decided to carry out the project from autumn 2024, with some changes based on your feedback.

  • We expect construction will take 12 to 18 months
  • In 2025, we'll trial traffic filters. Traffic filters are points on the road that most motor vehicles are not allowed to drive through. Drivers can still reach all addresses that are currently accessible by motor vehicles but might need to take different routes to some of them.
  • We will keep residents updated as the project continues and let you know if construction will affect you. We will do our best to reduce any disruption.

About the Mildmay Liveable neighbourhood

The liveable neighbourhood will create pleasant and lively streets, where communities can come together to spend time with their neighbours, support local shops and children can play and travel safely. With more greening including plants and trees, seating for neighbours, and reduced traffic volumes, the liveable neighbourhood will transform Mildmay’s streets.

Our public consultation

We ran a public consultation on final draft proposals for the Mildmay Liveable Neighbourhood between Monday 11 September and Sunday 8 October 2023.

Most people who responded to our consultation survey agreed that the plans would be positive for the area, as well as their health and wellbeing. There were also some concerns raised about some elements of the project.
