Safer crossings for school kids



Following a councillor walkabout, and subsequent resident consultation, earlier in the year, there will be new road safety improvements to Culford & Tottenham Roads.

There will be a raised junction at the crossing of Culford & Tottenham Roads to slow traffic and make the area safer - especially for children at Our Lady and St Joseph.



There will also be a raised table at the entrance to Culford Road from Balls Pond Road. Residents and frequenters of teh Wellington pub, complained of cars entering the street too quickly.

These safety improvements come on top of:

- 20mph zone and heavy lorry heavy lorry ban secured by councillors last year.

- new zebra crossing for Southgate Road

- New speed tables on Nuttall Street to slow cars & keep the noise down
