In February Haringey Council published a map showing LTNs covering most of the borough, stating that it provided an "indication of the LTN areas" and "should be treated as a guide rather than a rule". Included in the map were some areas where in effect LTNs already exist - after all, the principles behind LTNs are nothing new, just the terminology.
LTNs will be a key component of the walking and cycling strategy and action plan that Haringey Council is currently developing. Drafts are out for consultation until 10th January 2022.
