A campaign success this week. My colleague Cllr Martin Newton (Lib Dem, Fortis Green ward) has been spearheading a campaign to get Haringey Council to check the state of pedestrian crossings near schools – and to repaint etc as necessary.

He was spurred on by having discovered several dangerous crossings – so it wasn’t just a matter of fixing what was found to be wrong, but getting the systems right for the future.

Here’s hoping … but if you spot any other crossings that need work, do let me know.
