Muswell Hill’s Liberal Democrat councillors have welcomed the news that major improvements to Muswell Hill roundabout are set to be made after agreement between London Buses and Haringey Council.

The two parties have reached agreement on the lease for the chalet at the centre of the roundabout. Once final legal details are sorted out, this will release £100,000 from London Buses for work on the site.

As the design and contractor are already in place, work is expected to start this month and is due to be completed by September next year.

“This is excellent news and will greatly improve what has been an eyesore for many years,” comments Cllr. Lynne Featherstone, who has consistently campaigned for the site to be improved.
