Try before you buy – run a trial play street
Want to run a trial play street? Perhaps on Car Free Day or another day? You can! Find out if a play street is for you and your neighbours before committing to regular sessions by having a one-off event or street party. More details below.
At least six weeks before your event.
The council charges £31.61 for a street party application. Applying for a single play street event (or repeated events) is free. We therefore recommend that you use a play street application to run a trial.
All neighbours to be informed of time and dates.
Council provides barriers
As noted we recommend applying to run a one-off event using a play street application as in Hounslow this is free (whereas a street party application comes at a cost).
