Will closures affect cycling and pedestrian access?
Most planned closures in Lambeth for January- February 2026 prioritize rambler and cyclist access where doable, though some full restrictions apply during peak workshop.
Lambeth Bridge southbound check from February 10 maintains path and insulated cycle path open 24/7, with temporary business lights replacing roundabouts; A23 Streatham Hill junctions use signage for diversions avoiding crosswalk blocks.
TfL machine precedence schemes at Ardwell, Barrhill, Tierney, and Telford Roads allow cyclists through with advance signage per MUTCD norms, though Villa Road and Sail Street mileage works put full closures banning bikes; no broad rambler/ cyclist bans reported.
