Camden residents are being asked for their views on council plans to pedestrianise the high street as part of a new consultation.

Under the proposals, external, Camden Council wants to create a "motor traffic-free" section of the north London road, from the junction with Parkway and Kentish Town Road, to the junction with Jamestown Road and Hawley Crescent.

On its website the council said the area "can get overcrowded" and "high levels of motor vehicle traffic can lead to conflict with pedestrians... worsen air quality, and negatively affect visitors’ experience".

If passed, the scheme would first be introduced for an 18-month trial.

But what do locals think? Â鶹Éç Radio London's Salma El-Wardany has been finding out.
