Transport for London (TfL) will begin works along the A10 Bishopsgate corridor from 22 April to 2 July 2025, removing the existing blue pedestrian barriers and replacing them with bolt-down kerbs. These changes form part of a wider ambition to improve the street layout and pedestrian experience in the area.

In addition, drainage upgrades will be carried out, and a temporary site compound will be set up opposite 33 Gracechurch Street.
