New safety measures in Finsbury Park

Part of: Keeping Finsbury Park safe

In response to resident and local stakeholder feedback, Haringey Council has introduced new safety measures in Finsbury Park.

This includes the installation of new overhead lighting between the Finsbury Gate and Endymion Road Gate, including the spurs that lead to Oxford Road and Stroud Green Road. This lighting replaces temporary lighting which was installed along this route in 2022.

The council is also undertaking a review of the boundaries and entrances to the park to make the park safer and more accessible for everyone. Working in partnership with Sustrans, the council carried out a consultation to gather views of residents and park users in summer 2023, and will be setting out more detailed proposals.
