Making Broomfield Park more welcoming for teenage girls - posted by Colin Younger

It's sad to read how afraid people feel because of the lack of open views behind walls and hedges. It's not easy to see how this can be dealt with; planting and Listed walls are inherent to the park.

bounds green ltn 3 areas new design

Haringey Council's Streets for People team have announced that the low-traffic neighbourhood in Bounds Green will start trial operation on Monday 15th August. The team has published new and clearer maps of the scheme (see below), which is split into three areas. Through traffic will still be able to use Bounds Green Road and Brownlow Road. The scheme, which is integrated with Enfield Council's existing Bowes LTN, uses a mix of camera-controlled "filters" and filters created by bollards or other physical barriers that will prevent cars and lorries passing through without hindering pedestrians, wheelchair users or cyclists.

Vehicles in certain categories will be exempt from the prohibition of passing camera-controlled filters, as shown in the box below.

Exemptions

Following extensive engagement and research, the council has developed a Low Traffic Neighbourhood Exemptions Criteria and Application Process. This provides exemptions for:

emergency service vehicles
council refuse and cleaning vehicles
Blue Badge holders living within or on the immediate boundary of an LTN (one vehicle can be nominated which doesn’t need to be
registered at the address of the Blue Badge holder)
Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) transport
Haringey Council services and commissioned services transporting people with a disability and Transport for London’s Dial-a-Ride service any other vehicles required for urgent safety matters with the permission of the Council
individual circumstance exemptions

For full details and larger versions of the maps, visit the Haringey Council website.
