Which highways repairs should we prioritise in Harringay this year?

Hi everyone, 

It's that time of the year again! :)

Each year your councillors are asked to nominate highways repair works for the next financial year. 

To give one example, in the past couple of years, Zena and I have been able to secure pavement repairs on Seymour, Hampden, Hewitt, Beresford and (soon!) Woollaston roads through this process. 

We are happy to receive suggestions for highways repairs that Harringay residents would like us to nominate. These suggestions can cover repairs or works related to:

• Roads - including drainage
• Pavements
• Street Lighting
• Pedestrian accessibility, e.g. to facilitate accessibility for residents with mobility or visual impairments

You can send these suggestions to me (Anna.Abela@haringey.gov.uk) and / or Zena (Zena.Brabazon@haringey.gov.uk).

Please send us your suggestions by 3 October so that we'll have enough time to submit our nominations before the deadline. 

We would be grateful if you could kindly include the following details in your email: 

• Road name and relevant section of the road (e.g. between house numbers 11-24)
• Type of work required
• Photos (if possible)

To manage expectations: this exercise covers the entire Borough, and the funding pot is capped, so officers will prioritise nominations based on urgency. As a very rough rule of thumb, this exercise typically yields around three highways repairs per ward.

We will suggest a prioritisation of our nominations based on our layperson's understanding, but the final decision is based on technical assessments of urgency by highways officers.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions. 

Best regards, 

Anna

Cllr Anna Abela (Labour councillor, Harringay ward)
