The long-term...in the long-term..... but we also need a fix in the short-term Chris.<br />
<br />
Moving on from "<i>We're investigating the possibility of identifying the funds to look into it"</i>, would be a a start. However, as well as a hop to "<i>We're planning to look into it</i>", I'd hope we could add in the skip and the jump too and arrive at "<i>We're planning to do something to alleviate the problem immediately and will be delivering plans fro a long term solution within X time period</i>".

ah, didn't mean that at all, meant turning right from the high road south bound onto turnpike lane

The Met have a good website <a href="https://secure.met.police.uk/roadsafelondon/" target="_blank">here</a> for reporting dangerous driving. When I get time I'm going to do an iPhone app for it.<br />
<br />
If you turn right from Willoughby onto Turnpike lane you would turn across the traffic island which I think is difficult to remove. Also I suspect there would just be more accidents at that intersection.

I'm going to report him if i get around to finding the right site. Good to meet you, if only briefly anyway!<br />
<br />
apologies for mis-reading the turn sign, that makes much more sense. in my defence I'm new round this end of the ladder, adn only moved in two weeks ago (from the gardens)<br />

I'd argue about right hand turns being dangerous - there's a filter light to turn right going north on green lanes onto westbury avenue (although it doesn't always come on...) There could be an equivalent one for…

<br />
not sure how the traffic island affects things - I'll have a look up there tonight - but lorries come along westbury and straight along turnpike lane all the time with no problem (or have I got the wrong end off the stick?)<br />
<br />
again i might be wrong, but you can't go down alexandra if you come out of the shopping city car park (on the east side of the high road) and come out of whymark avenue.

Hey! I was the guy on the bike who used his super powers to give you the registration number! He was doing 60 or more. I thought it was a Merc, but hey ho.<br />
<br />
There is a left turn at that end of Willoughby Rd, no right hand turn. They just prefer a ladder Rd to avoid the traffic lights. That "traffic island" on Turpike Lane outside Nomad used to be a tram stop with an entrance into the tube station so it's hollow underneath and I suspect the reason there is no right hand turn.

Oh, and you're supposed to turn right with the lights up at Alexandra Rd on Wood Green High Street to get onto Turnpike Lane when heading South.

On a related note (and possibly selfishly), does anyone know why there is a no right turn into turnpike lane from Wood Green?<br />
<br />
any traffic wanting to go that way has to go round Ducketts and then along Lausanne or Raleigh, often at high speed (silver Audi LB05 FYP, practically airborne over the bumps last Saturday, I'm looking at you)<br />

Likewise, traffic from west green road comes round the common and across the ladder rather than queue to turn left at turnpike lane. Here the no left turn at the end of Willoughby forces the traffic along residential roads instead of directly onto the main road.<br />
<br />
presumably there are valid historical reasons for this. has anyone any ideas?
