It\u2019s been a long time coming for the pedestrianisation of Oxford Street<\/a>. After being first announced as a grand plan by London Mayor Sadiq Khan back in 2017, it could be about to become a reality very soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Under a new phase of plans, TfL hopes that\u00a0that delivery of the scheme could start in the second half of 2026.\u00a0The transport bosses have\u00a0just launched a consultation into\u00a0the plans for traffic diversion, which will see buses, taxis and private hire vehicles totally banned from the road. Cycling wouldn\u2019t be allowed under the proposed plans either, but TfL says that it would create new \u2018high-quality\u2019 cycle routes through the surrounding area. Cars are already banned from 7am to 7pm from Monday to Saturday.<\/p>\n

A banning of all vehicles would mean that buses that currently run along Oxford Street would have to be rerouted. According to the proposals, all buses that currently serve Oxford Street would be redirected along Wigmore Street and Henrietta Place.<\/p>\n

Sixteen routes could have to be altered, including\u00a0bus routes\u00a07, 94<\/strong> and 98<\/strong>. Buses that only use sections of the street will also have to change their routes slightly. They are the 22<\/strong> and N22<\/strong> from Putney Common, the 73<\/strong> and N73<\/strong> from Stoke Newington and the N15<\/strong> from Romford Market. TfL\u00a0said that the difference in journey times would be \u2018less than a minute\u2019.<\/p>\n

Sadiq Khan said:\u00a0\u2018These new proposals map out the potential next steps with Transport for London to make our vision of a thriving, greener Oxford Street a reality. I encourage everyone to have their say on the proposals, which would transform Oxford Street into a place Londoners and the whole country can be proud of, as we continue to build a better London for everyone.\u2019<\/p>\n

If you want to have your say, you can contribute to the public consultation here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
