Update 1st November 2021

The Bowes Primary Area Quieter Neighbourhood was implemented as a trial under Experimental Traffic Orders (ETOs) and the project has been under review since implementation.

Restrictions on travel due to Covid-19 were lifted fully in July 2021 and with schools returning in early September, a further set of traffic data was collected towards the end of that month to help assess the impacts of this trial. The Council is now reviewing this data with the intention of publishing a report (following the interim report published in June 2021) before the end of the year.

Prior to finalising this report, we would like to offer you a further opportunity to share with us any final comments on the Bowes Primary Area Quieter Neighbourhood trial. All responses will be considered alongside objections and representations previously made during the consultation period (held from 28 September 2020 to 2 May 2021). If you would like to do so, please make your objection or representation in writing stating the grounds on which it is being made and quoting the reference TG52/1454. You can send this via one of the following means:

• By email to HealthyStreets@enfield.gov.uk, or
• By writing to ATTN Healthy Streets, Enfield Council, Silver St, Enfield, EN1 3XA.

This further opportunity to provide comment will close at 11.59pm on Sunday 21st November 2021. Please note that any letter or email you write to the Council in response to the ETO may, upon written request, be made available to the press or to the public.

Whilst the Council will not be providing individual responses to any further comments, these will be responded to in the published report, along with the rest of feedback that has already been received.

The monitoring plan for the project, along with a range of additional information, remains available on the dedicated project page: https://letstalk.enfield.gov.uk/bowesQN.
