Public consultation on the experimental traffic order at Bank has opened. 

From May 2017, Bank Junction operated weekday traffic restrictions between 7AM and 7PM, permitting only buses and cycles. On 28 July 2025, The City of London Corporation introduced a trial allowing licensed taxis (black cabs) to travel across Bank Junction between Poultry and Cornhill during these hours. Please note this trial does not include private hire vehicles such as Uber or Bolt.

The purpose of this trial is to assess whether allowing licensed taxis improves access for those who rely on them and whether it increases taxi availability in the area.

Consultation period: 19 January 2026 – 31 May 2026

Online Survey:  www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/allchangeatbank.

All feedback will help inform the final decision, which will be taken later this year, on whether to make this change to taxi access at Bank permanent.
