Lib Dems have welcomed London Underground’s decision to agree to their suggestions of a further consultation in the Autumn to review the controversial fence that has been installed at Highgate Tube station. The move follows a meeting with key residents and Tube bosses this morning at the station.

Lynne Featherstone comments:

“I am pleased that Transport for London have agreed that there is a need to look at this issue again, to ensure that a fair solution is found.”

Cllr Bob Hare adds:

“As a result of this morning’s meeting, TfL have also agreed to look at ways in which the fence could be altered to provide a solution that could be acceptable to everyone. I think this is a reasonable and sensible way forward.”
