1 story · 1 council

Kensington and Chelsea councillors recently considered traffic safety concerns about a delivery-only kitchen's potential impact on local roads.

In July 2026, the Kensington and Chelsea Licensing Sub-Committee heard an application for a premises licence for a delivery-only kitchen at 27 Kensington High Street. The Kensington Residents Group raised concerns that increased delivery vehicles could worsen traffic congestion and safety issues in the busy High Street area.

Traffic safety involves measures to prevent accidents and injuries on roads, particularly concerning pedestrians and vehicles. The sub-committee considered these potential impacts as part of the licensing process for the new business.
