Coronavirus (COVID-19) update – Friday 27 March 2020
Following government advice around the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, the Crown Estate Paving Commission has made arrangements to protect the wellbeing of staff, Commissioners, contractors and residents, while continuing to provide its critical operations to residents.
The CEPC office is now closed to public access until further notice.
CEPC administrative staff are working from home, and have remote access to the majority of our systems. We are therefore able to respond to enquiries via phone and email during normal office hours (Monday to Friday 9am-5pm).
We continue to provide access to our communal gardens, along with providing vital monitoring and maintenance of the CEPC roads, pavements and lighting. We are focusing our activities on essential work on the CEPC’s estate and constantly reviewing the unfolding government advice and requirements.
Arrangements will be made for Board and other committee meetings to be conducted remotely.
We currently have some issues with our group e mail communication system, and have limited staff on site to deliver notices. In the interim, the CEPC website will be kept up to date. Please refer to the News section for useful links to further information. And https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/
We manage and maintain areas of Crown Land around the Regent’s Park and Carlton House Terrace in London.
We are responsible for roads, pavements and gardens and also provide street cleaning, lighting and garden maintenance services. Using a 24 hour security patrol, we regulate on-street parking and issue licences to those wishing to work in our areas of operation.
As a statutory body in its own right, the CEPC is independent of The Crown Estate and the local authorities. It is funded entirely through its rates and services to local residents and businesses.
