The high Street is already on its knees so dont ruin what was positive change. We need to protect our community assets and make it easier to visit them.

I feel all the businesses will benefit from the extra tables they can use with this road closure and need all the help they can get after Covid .

The road closure has bought more people into town, allowing them to relax outside the shops and pubs. These people go on to use other businesses while they are in town. At a time when businesses really need the customers enabling them to continue trading, I think it important to help them do so.

This will ruin the town if you do this.

Keep these small streets free of vehicles, so nice to have the option of sitting outdoors and it must bring in lots of custom for the surrounding businesses. Come on sevenoaks council!

It’s much safer for everybody when the road is not open for the cars.

This road closure is definitely helping surrounding businesses, and traffic coming through Bank street makes it quite hazardous for pedestrians, I myself have been clipped by a van driving through at excessive speed, fortunately only lightly but could have been worse.

Definitely a benefit to the town for the public and businesses. So much safer when you have children too

I firmly think that having this area pedestrianised is an asset to the town

Please close the road permanently. It is important to support business owners and it is lovely to sit outside and enjoy the cafe culture.

I, like many use the outside seating for both cafe and pubs and think it brings something to our Town. Making this road closure permanent will enhance the friendly vibe of our town allowing people the choice to sit inside or out while supporting our independent shops, pubs and eating places which is so important in pur town of Sevenoaks.

Cars have no need to use this road. Any essential deliveries must be scheduled before 8.30 am and after 10pm

It’s great to have more pedestrianised areas that also allow businesses to thrive.

The road closure has created a really pleasant atmosphere and good seating in Sevenoaks
