Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Just a warning that there are small signs saying that the LTN is being reimposed on 22/7/24.

It's not clear whether the reimposition starts 22 July or 23 July.

Of course, the signs are not prominant and appear immediately before and after the physical barriers so you only notice them as you drive through.

Was this LTN suspended due to the closer of West Green Road by Cadent further down towards Tottenham? 

Yes.

I hoped it would become a permanent arrangement. It has eased some of the congestion on West Green Rd.

Black Boy Lane is a logical thoroughfare. Keeping the other LTNs but opening up Black Boy Lane would be a win.

But isn't WGR still going to be closed for a few more weeks?

The WGR works finished a bit early, last week I think.

Will be nice to have the LTN back in place. Black Boy Lane is grim to walk up and down when it's full of cars.

But too bad for all those walking along WGR from Green Lanes who will now have to put up with all the fumes from the cars in the gridlock though eh, cos the LTN is now back?

I probably walk along West Green Rd ten times more than Black Boy Lane and although I would agree it is busier I don't think it is any more unpleasant than it previously was. It was a busy road and still is a busy road.

For Black Boy Lane on the other hand it has made a significant difference. 

I thought the signage was very clear. In the run up to the changes large dot matrix signs advertising date of LTN reintroduction placed in several locations, the filters themselves had the date added to the temporary yellow emergency access over-signs in advance, and the key change was the removal of the yellow over-signs and reversion to the Highway Code no motor vehicle access except with permit.

 Not any more

In the dim distant days when I was a councillor, residents routinely brought such complaints to me and my fellow ward councillors. Sometimes with helpful photos - though it wasn't as cheap and simple to do this as now. Spending time on the local streets etc , was seen as part of a councillor's job. Each ward has two or three councillors so this work could be shared if they speak to one another. 

The two councillors for St Ann's Ward are Cllr Holly Harrison-Mullane

and Cllr Tammy Hymas

Posting on a website as well as making direct contact with councillors can be a useful 'belt-and-braces' method. Especially as not every councillor may have come across social media. Some still use the telephone or meet residents face to face. I imagine them dipping their quill pens in little inkwells.
