Elected Members of the City of London Corporation have today voted to allow taxis to access Bank Junction for a trial period. All 4 Cornhill Ward elected members voted in favour of the trial.
The decision was made by the Court of Common Council, the City Corporation’s premier decision-making body, with the change expected to come into effect in Spring 2025, provided Transport for London approve the proposal.
City Corporation Transport Officers will now be asked to draw up proposals for an experimental traffic order, to allow taxi access to Bank Junction at all times while continuing to restrict other traffic, including private hire vehicles, between 7am and 7pm, Monday to Friday.
Restrictions have been in place since 2017 to limit the junction to use by people cycling and buses only.
