Our Streets
Our Streets play a major role in our vision for a Greener Kingston. We want everyone to feel our streets are spaces where they can breathe clean air, walk safely and feel connected to the local community.
We really want your views and suggestions for our programmes to improve Kingston’s neighbourhoods for everyone.
Together we can design greener, safer streets for current and future generations.
