Jamestown Road closure is shameful

Thursday, 8th October 2020

• I HAVE just seen that Jamestown Road between Arlington Road and Camden High Street has been signposted as closed to traffic.

It is utterly shameful that Camden has used the cover of the pandemic to implement closure of a vital road without consulting any of those who live and work in this area.

This closure will also adversely affect the level of policing in this high crime hotspot area. Since the cuts to police numbers, much patrolling now has to be carried out by the response teams in cars; they will now patrol this area more infrequently.

I call on the council to reverse this disgraceful and contemptuous action now.
