Westminster City Council is proceeding with the Warwick Avenue public realm scheme, adjacent to St Saviours Church, despite concerns over rising costs and motorcycle parking.

Westminster City Council's Warwick Avenue public realm scheme, adjacent to St Saviours Church, is proceeding after the Housing and Regeneration Policy and Scrutiny Committee allowed a Cabinet Member's decision to stand in April 2026. Councillors had raised concerns about the scheme's rising cost and plans for relocating motorcycle parking.

The scheme's cost has increased to £3 million, with councillors questioning the justification for this expenditure, particularly regarding material costs like Yorkstone paving, a report to the committee said. Concerns were also raised about the relocation of motorcycle parking, including potential sites like Formosa Street.
