To better protect everyone who lives, works and trades in the area and following advice from the Metropolitan Police, we will be introducing new barriers that will restrict vehicle access during market hours. https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/planning-and-building-control/amazing-spaces/strengthening-portobello-road Works will begin to prepare the road from next week, with the aim to have the barriers installed by the end of June. Please familiarise yourselves with the changes over the next few weeks ahead of the closures starting.
