Last chance to have your say on cycle lane consultation

Time is running out to have your say on plans to make active travel safer and easier on the cycle route linking Tottenham and Crouch End.
Cycle lane consultation

The council has already received valuable feedback on the proposals, which feature a protected two-way cycle track on a section of Tottenham Lane between High Street, Hornsey and the junction of Church Lane.

As well as keeping cyclists separated from traffic, plans include the introduction of a new zebra crossing and an upgrade to an existing one.

Cllr Mike Hakata, Cabinet Member for Climate Action, Environment and Transport, said:

This proposal underlines our commitment to making Haringey a fairer, greener borough in which transport infrastructure is designed to ensure active travel and public transport are the first choices.

Cycling has many benefits, from supporting residents’ health and wellbeing to reducing traffic and improving air quality. By creating a network of protected lanes, we will tackle one of the biggest obstacles to cycling – the sense of vulnerability and the fear of collisions.

Part of our Streets for People programme, we want to get this important scheme right. I urge everyone to have their say and get involved in the conversation.

The consultation is open until Friday, 27 September for residents to have their say.
