Hah ! In Tottenham we get Tarmac round the new non-one-way on all but the very busiest high road bits, and those are not quite finished yet, patched in with Tarmac round all the corners and tricky bit, they can lay square slabs but not cut them to fit.
We got tarmac too when ours was replaced. It is much better than our old pavements but still very uneven and not very pretty.
......in which connection, it's rather fun that on many of the Ladder roads you can still see the boundary between the old Hornsey and Tottenham boundaries by where the paving stops (Tottenham) and becomes tarmac (Hornsey)....with the exception of Effingham which, alone amongst all residential roads in Harringay, was unaccountably relaid with brand new pavement along its entire length some years ago.
....and is that Mrs Santa waiting with the Santa laundry bag?
Which airport terminal Hugh?
Looks like some people have had their dinner off some very new paving slabs, and left the marks of their food and waste. I can't get excited, some already look dirty and they show the dirt more than the old ones.
Speaking of which when are we going to see real 'concrete' improvements to Green Lanes.This is beginning to look like a squandered opportunity, Like others have pointed out the pavement will soon look a mess-thats guaranteed, and its already started, they wont be maintained properly, thats for sure - if you need proof of that look at Wood Green High Street. OK maybe you can walk down Green Lanes without twisting your ankle, The hullabaloo raised about the regeneration of Green Lanes , has turned out to be a very damp squib. Highly disappointing. Thankfully some good restaurants, cafes, businesses etc there, some new ones too, hope they stay.
it is depressing though I try to be optimistic but replacing pavements was never going to be a real source of regeneration. We should be starting with people's heads not their feet.
The proliferation of big restaurants only adds to the pollution and dirt along Green lanes and the streets off these where many of us live.
