Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Some may remember a consultation about introducing a red route and other changes along West Green Road with a broad goal of speeding up buses.

The council appear to have been sitting on the results for 2 years now, based on this entry in their 'forward plan'. (https://www.minutes.haringey.gov.uk/mgListPlanItems.aspx?PlanId=655)

As I understand, there were some controversial elements in the plan, which I won't go into personally, which I guess have made this decision tricky for whatever reason. However, it seems to mean that uncontroversial (I think?) elements, such as having a right turn lane and right filter phase on the lights at Belmont Road/West Green Road have not been done. 

In the very earliest consultations about the West Green LTN (maybe 2022?) I and others had raised on the interactive map that this junction would become a problem. Whatever one's views on the LTNs generally are, I would have hoped that ensuring obstacles like this are cleared on the remaining through routes should have been a no-brainer but nothing is happening. 

I would ask any councillors on here (I did not get any response to a direct email about this a while back) : why is there silence on this, and can some improvements (like this junction) be factored out and implemented if there are other sticking points?

Implemented by 2030? The council should send wardens down WGR to sort out the cars parked on double yellows. I can walk them through all the hot spots.
