What we are doing in Bloomsbury.
Important Right Now
The Democratic Deficit
We are working to highlight the democratic deficit in Bloomsbury, and formulating a plan to resolve it.
Cartwright Gardens Changes
Nobody wants a new pavement on Cartwright Gardens – we know why it’s being proposed, and we want the money to be diverted elsewhere.
Section 106 – Where’s our Money?
We have found Camden are raising hundreds of millions through Section 106 in Bloomsbury – money which is supposed to be spent on us. Where is it?
All Current Work
Weekly Litter Walks
We have weekly meetings with Camden’s SAMOs to identify and resolve cleanliness problems in the area.
CCTV for Bloomsbury
David Marchant is campaigning for CCTV to be introduced onto the streets.
Trees for Calthorpe Street
We are working to get trees on Calthorpe Street, with the possibility of closing one end to traffic.
Gray’s Inn Road Changes
We are campaigning to ensure the community’s needs are met during the installation of new cycle lanes.
EDH Development
We are working to ensure residents are properly represented during construction of the new building.
New Bins for Bloomsbury
We are trialling an increased density of bins in the Judd Street area, with a possibility of extension to the rest of Bloomsbury.
Heritage
We are trying to bring greater alignment between Camden’s planning department and ourselves.
Derby Lodge
We are working to represent residents during the construction of an office block in their courtyard.
Abandoned Highways Equipment
We are trying to ensure that contractors stop leaving highways equipment around Bloomsbury.
Argyle Walk
We are working to ‘beautify’ Argyle Walk as part of a Keep Britain Tidy campaign.
Things we’ve Achieved
Greater Police Numbers
David Marchant has succeeded in increasing police numbers in Bloomsbury.
Taviplace Inquiry
We succeeded in forcing a public inquiry into the shambolic Taviplace consultation.
