Site: Flyover & subway (2 memorials)
W2, Marylebone Road, Joe Strummer Subway
February 2011 and Westminster Council are considering closing the subway.
July 2017: Thanks Richard Ruth for reporting that the Strummer plaque is still there.
2018: Subway closed.
December 2022: Hoarding around the building on this corner encompasses the subway so it is now inaccessible and impossible to see whether the plaque remains.
March 2024: Ian Visits reported that the subway is to be filled in and to operate as a sustainable urban drainage system, a rain garden.
We've marked the plaque as lost. If anyone sees it reappear please let us know.
