Consultation - Bowes Primary & Surrounding Streets Quieter Neighbourhood

Residents in the Bowes Primary & Surrounding Streets Quieter Neighbourhood Area have raised concerns with Enfield Council over traffic issues in the area for many years, alongside Ward Councillors and Bambos Charalambous MP who presented a petition to Parliament in 2018. This trial is a response to those concerns.

The trial is being funded from the first tranche of the Department for Transport Emergency Active Travel Fund, an initiative that has been launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

There will be a range of assessments made when judging the overall success of this trial, which includes:

• Residents’ views on how the benefits of the scheme compare against the disadvantages
• Data on the volume of motor vehicle movements in the area
• Data on the speed of motor vehicles in the area
• Impacts on the primary roads surrounding the area
• Air quality considerations
• Bus journey time considerations through discussion with Transport for London
• Outcomes of ongoing dialogue with the Emergency Services

The project is implemented as a trial using experimental traffic orders (ETO) which includes the consultation with community during the trial period.

Now that the community have had the opportunity to experience the trial working in practice, we would like to invite you to share your feedback. We will be reviewing feedback through the consultation period and there is the ability to amend the scheme during the trial period.
