On the street
When you visit, you may notice that we’ve made some changes to the street. There will be wider pavements and more planting and seating to ensure you have enough space and have plenty of places to have a rest when you need to. Oxford Street’s team of cleaners will be on the street daily ensuring the street and high touch areas are regularly cleansed.
Services on the street include:
- Hand sanitiser stations
- Bicycle parking
- Taxi ranks
- Public toilets
For a map of all our services scan this QR code – you’ll also find this on the street.
Due to an increase in street robbery, the Metropolitan Police are encouraging people to be careful when they use their mobile phones in public. Ensure you stay safe while visiting Oxford Street:
- Stay aware of your surroundings and pay attention to who’s around you
- Keep valuables such as mobile phones, watches and cash out of sight
- Plan your route home
