Sloane Sq

The Society has been consulted by Cadogan and RBKC about the possible widening of pavements around the Square.

The public consultation is now at Sloane Square Pavement Scheme – Kensington and Chelsea’s Consultation and Engagement Hub – Citizen Space (rbkc.gov.uk)

Easing pedestrian congestion would be a good idea, and it can probably be done without impeding traffic flows around the Square.

     

Members may be interested to know that in its very first Annual Report (1928) the Council of the Society said that “It is naturally interested in the prospective layout of Sloane Square, where the roundabout traffic system has been permanently adopted.  Various attractive suggestions have been made, but it is understood that apart from financial considerations, there are difficulties due to the Underground Railway and the existing public conveniences. The Borough Council have courteously promised, through our late Chairman, Sir Albert Gray KCB, KC, that the Society shall have an opportunity of seeing the plans when these have taken shape.”
