I went traffic trouble shooting around and about in Muswell Hill this morning, meeting two Haringey Council officers to take them to look at some of the nasty traffic situations in my patch.

I dragged them to Coldfall Primary school so that if and when their bid for resources is granted (hopefully) they can begin urgent work to bring in safety measures. The children there are not protected and it is downright dangerous at both entrances.

I took them to the completely unacceptable situation at the top of Muswell Hill itself – where trying to cross the road you take your life in your hands where they have now created three lanes out of two – directly against what had been agreed.

And we glanced through the rotten junction at the bottom of Cranley Gardens, the speeding on Priory Road now it is cleared of parked cars and so on.
