Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
A dark day for Wightman Road
Nice to see Wightman getting a new coat of tarmac...

I am worried about the speed bumps not being in place. To go from no traffic to 50 mph cars on the day the schools go back is very scary.

There were on the section they have just done in the middle of the ladder. No attempt to replace them.

The speed humps haven't been replaced in the mid section of Wightman. Some of the barriers have already been removed and I have seen a few vehicles taking advantage of their removal and an empty road with some doing over 50mph and overtaking on the wrong side of the road. I'm dreading tomorrow!

ah you've got to love Haringey Council. They seem to excel in putting our lives in danger.
Have they done a deal with the Mercs of Green Lanes i wonder?

Sorry folks, I'd better not mention the WR words. Someone might find them inappropriate.

In actual fact, it's pretty quiet isn't it? The word hasn't got out yet to all those people in Hertfordshire that the greatest shortcut in North London is open again. 1.6 miles from the traffic lights at Turnpike Lane until you hit another set at Stroud Green Road. Where else can you do that in London?

Yes it is quiet. It is a bit heartbreaking to think of all that effort and work that has gone on as people have found different transport solutions . . . but of course day by day more and more drivers will re-discover Harringay as a rat-run until it clogs up again as it was.
Mind you - I did have my first near injury on Wightman as some idiot in a Jag overtook me on my bike at one of the narrow points. Just like the old days.
