The London Borough of are working with the Stockwell Partnership, local residents and architects DSDHA to develop design proposals for the area of Binfield Road adjacent to Stockwell Station. The ambition of this project is to develop a new dignified, safe and accessible public space that is appropriate for the thousands of people who pass through the area everyday, while acting as a catalyst for regenerating the centre of Stockwell. Public Consultation Event: Wednesday 17 April: 3pm - 7pm Saturday 20 April: 12noon - 4pm Location: Binfield Road (adjacent to Stockwell Tube Station) People who live and work in the Stockwell area are invited to get involved, share their ideas and help influence the final proposals. Members of the steering group and design team will be available to discuss the preliminary proposals and answer questions.

Future Proposals • We will engage with Transport for London on the potential to revise the one-way traffic system in order to connect Stockwell Square to the Memorial Gardens, creating a large public space. • We will work with to build a new canopy to the tube station with integrated lighting to enhance safety, to give the station a positive identity and to re-establish its historic presence.
