New West End Company, representing over 600 retail, leisure, hospitality, and property businesses in the West End, has long championed the transformation of Oxford Street – affectionately known by many as the “nation’s high street”.
The Mayor of London’s announcement of a bold vision for Oxford Street is a welcome acknowledgement, at the highest levels, of the critical role the street can play in driving growth in London and across the UK. That his proposal has the backing of Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner, sends a clear message: Labour is serious about delivering growth, and high streets are key tothat ambition.
