HIGHGATE SPEEDING PROGRESS

Highgate Lib Dem councillors have welcomed some progress on the dangerous zebra crossing on North Hill, N6.

At a site meeting with the Highgate Society, local residents and Haringey Council officers, Haringey Council agreed to implement immediate safety measures including the removal of some on-street parking and better street lighting to improve visibility. They also agreed to a speed survey at the dangerous site.

Neil Williams, Highgate councillor and Leader of the Opposition, comments:

“I am pleased that some immediate measures will be taken but it concerns me that it may take another serious accident before wholesale improvements are introduced.

“I will continue to work with Lynne Featherstone to press for everything possible to be done to tackle the speeding problem in North Hill.”
