Abbey Road

Abbey Road

Abbey Road is the northernmost ward in Westminster. It is bordered to the southeast by Regent's Park, Little Venice at its most southern point, and Maida Vale to the southwest. The borough of Camden borders Abbey Road to the north.

The ward is currently represented by three Conservative councillors; Peter Freeman, Lindsey Hall and Judith Warner. 

In May, all three are standing down, and we wish them well in their retirements. The Conservative candidates in the election to replace them are Amanda Langford, Alan Mendoza and Caroline Sargent.

Air quality remains the number one issue for local people and as a result we are seeing an increase in cycle usage and ownership of bikes however with this we have also seen more bikes being abandoned.  Recently we had removed an abandoned bike in Wellington Place and Aberdeen Place.

There Is No Dog Poo Fairy in Abbey Road!

It is always amazing to us that local dog owners go to the trouble of bagging up their dog's excrement, but then dump their little parcels in the footwells of local trees along our footpaths.  

THERE IS NO DOG POO FAIRY!  PLEASE BAG IT AND BIN IT.
