The Dartmouth Park Neighbourhood Forum (DPNF) is quizzing locals on how they feel travel in the area should look as society deals with recovering the coronavirus pandemic and tackles the climate emergency.
In a statement, the forum wrote: “Whilst the past few months have been difficult in numerous ways, many people have appreciated the lack of traffic and the noticeable improvement in air quality. People are also worried that traffic levels will return worse than before if people are reluctant to use public transport. And they want to make the trading environment for our local businesses as attractive as possible as the recovery gathers pace.”

It also broaches the topic of more cycle routes on Hampstead Heath.
The findings of the survey will be passed to Camden Council.
The survey available at dpnf.org.uk/ will close on 31 July.
