Consultation has concluded

Update November 2023

We are consulting on the first phase of this project between Wembley Central and Harlesden stations where we are proposing a new high-quality Cycleway and improvements for pedestrians until Thursday 21 December 2023.

Please visit our consultation page (https://haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/wembley-harlesden) to have your say.

-update ends-

Since April 2019, we have been working closely with Brent Council to develop a scheme that would make it easier for local people to walk and cycle between Wembley and Willesden Junction.

Our proposals for a new high-quality Cycleway between Wembley and Willesden Junction would make streets in the area safer and more pleasant by enabling people to walk and cycle more and drive less. This would help us to reduce air pollution, carbon emissions and congestion in the area.

The proposals would introduce new and improved pedestrian crossings over Harrow Road,better street lighting and more trees and plants to help make the area feel safer and more welcoming.

Previous engagement

From January to March 2020, we spoke with communities in the Wembley, Stonebridge, and Harlesden neighbourhoods to help us develop our proposals so that they meet local priorities. We published a detailed report on this engagement in March 2023. The report details who we spoke with, what we found, and includes actions and recommendations that we have taken forward. The pandemic delayed the publication of this report and the project overall as we were forced to pause work on some of our walking and cycling schemes.

Phase 1: Wembley Central station to Harlesden station

In Autumn 2022, vital investment was secured as part of TfL’s funding agreement with Government to take forward our key priority Healthy Streets schemes to make the capital's roads safer and more attractive for those walking and cycling.

We and Brent Council have since agreed to progress the first phase of walking and cycling improvements between Wembley Central station and Harlesden station.

Update (July 2023)

Since March 2023 we have been collating your ideas and suggestions for this scheme via our ‘ideas board’ on this page. Several of these ideas were specific to the Wembley to Willesden Junction project while others were more general in nature. If you want to find out more about this project, email us at: localcommunitiesandpartnerships@tfl.gov.uk and quote “Wembley to Willesden” in the subject line.

Update (August 2023)

Since March 2023 we have been collating your ideas and suggestions for this scheme via out ‘ideas board’ on this page. Several of these ideas were specific to the Wembley to Willesden Junction project while others were more general in nature. All your ideas and comments have been passed to the team developing the scheme. In Autumn 2023 we intend to launch our public consultation to carry on the conversation with the public. We originally planned to launch the consultation in spring 2023 but had to push this back slightly to accommodate some important work on the scheme's design.
