We asked

We asked for your views on our proposals for the western entrance public realm planned for Barnet’s new Brent Cross West station.


You said

During a three-week public consultation period, 74 feedback surveys were received. Common themes included increased planting, decreased cycle parking, safety concerns for the area, accessibility concerns for disabled users at the drop-off bay, more seating, and dedicated parking.


We did

Feedback received enabled the refinement of the Brent Cross West western entrance public realm concept design. Design changes that were progressed included increase planting as both permanent and temporary features, decreased cycle parking which will be monitored in future to understand user demand, drop-off bay changes to be level with the carriageway, and increased seating. Safety has been fundamental to the design of the public realm, and whilst there were no significant changes to the design in this regard, we have provided a list of infrastructure and natural surveillance sources to enhance safety (within this document, page 6). Finally, further parking facilities were not considered as this would detract from the purpose of the Brent Cross West station and its public realm, which is to encourage active travel.

Further detailed information on the results of the consultation can be found here.
