Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

I was at an LCSP meeting last night and Ian Sygrave (the LCSP Chair) mentioned that there was some cash left in a post of money from the ward budgets that the LCSP had received. The money was for 'greening and trees' and some was used to clean up the pocket park at the bottom of Allison Road. Ian suggested we nominate 3 locations for new trees on Ladder Roads. So, if you would like one on your street and there is an empty tree pit (that has been empty for more than a year- so the roots of any previous tree may have rotted down) then let me know and I can put the location forward.

The council have an active programme of removing old/diseased trees and apparently should replace any they take away, but I am sure this does not always happen.

So, again, let me know if you have a suitable location to nominate. If there are good proposals for more than 3 trees we can see if we can find cash for other sites too.

Ah, but what's buried in the ground below? Pipes, cables?

Would it be posssible to consider planting trees in the build-outs where The Passage crosses the Ladder rung roads? Upright species would soften the hard landscaping and may even encourage traffic to slow as it would have the effect of reinforcing them as pinch points in the street.

Given how fussy they're being about planters there, I doubt it.

I would imagine the fuss about planters is about regular planting, littering and maintenance.
