Lib Dem councillor Lynne Featherstone has secured an extension to the yellow lines at the Onslow Gardens junction with Muswell Hill Road, N10. The action was assured by the Council’s traffic and road safety team last week after Cllr Featherstone passed on concerns that the double yellow lines on the junction, implemented late last year, did not extend far enough to improve access to the road.

Cllr Featherstone (Muswell Hill), who was responsible for bringing the problem of access and visibility at the junction to the attention of the Council originally back in October 2002, is pleased that it is taking action to resolve the issue. She is hopeful that the proposed safety measures will resolve the problem.

Cllr Featherstone comments:

“The Council has assured me that they investigated the site and have approved an extension of parking restrictions in the area. I am pleased that I have been able to assist local residents in having their concerns listened to, investigated and actioned.

“Haringey needs to improve road safety and this kind of measure will improve visibility and access and will go some way to improving safety for both drivers, cyclist and pedestrians in the area.”
