  • Traffic light phasing at Green Lanes/Hedge Lane/Bourne Hill junction

    • Reference: 2007/2828
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 12 December 2007
    Local residents are concerned over the lack of pedestrian crossing facilities at the Green Lanes/Hedge Lane/Bourne Hill junction in Enfield, particularly as the junction is close to a school, nursery and a youth club. Modelling work has been undertaken including the provision of pedestrian crossings on all sections of the junction.

However, as cars enter the middle of...
  • 184 bus route

    • Reference: 2007/2829
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 12 December 2007
    Residents have raised the issue of the 184 buses with me, operated by Arriva.

    Thank you for your answer to my question 2362/2007. Can you please update me with regard to your request to TfL that they follow up my concerns regarding the W3 bus? I am still receiving complaints from residents that they are being forced to disembark at Compton Road, N17 on a regular basis.
  • Dangers to cyclists

    • Reference: 2007/2801
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 12 December 2007
    The Metropolitan Police Traffic Unit have recently been doing excellent work in raising awareness of the dangers cyclists face at road junctions and roundabouts, where accidents with large vehicles and lorries can often result in serious injury or fatality. Given that British lorries are now fitted with additional mirrors to ensure all round visibility close to the vehicles, will you consider fitting these on bendy buses?
