The Westminster Licensing Sub-Committee considered a proposal in August 2025 to permanently relocate a street trader's pitch on Oxford Street.

In August 2025, the Westminster Licensing Sub-Committee considered a proposal to permanently relocate a street trader's pitch on Oxford Street. The Licensing Service sought to make the temporary move of Isolated Pitch 3005, which sells ice cream and frozen confectionery, a permanent arrangement, rescinding its original designation on Portman Street.

The pitch had been temporarily relocated to Oxford Street in 2018 following highway works, having previously been situated on Portman Street. The proposal reviewed by the sub-committee in August 2025 included designating a new permanent location for the pitch on Oxford Street, specifying its position 1.1m from the kerb edge.
