Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood

We are inviting you to take part in the statutory consultation on draft Traffic Orders TG52/1590 and TG52/1596. These are part of the Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood project, which aims to make the area healthier, greener, and safer for everyone.

Please share your views by 11:59pm on Sunday 5 October 2025.

In September 2023, we spoke with residents, businesses, and other stakeholder to help shape the early designs. We then asked for feedback on the concept designs in January and February 2024. This feedback has informed the proposals now being taken forward.

The proposals feature the following improvements as detailed in draft Traffic Order TG52/1590 (for Quieter Neighbourhood proposals) and TG52/1596 (for School Street proposals).

• A School Street outside Fleecefield and Brettenham Primary Schools, creating a protected zone in front of schools at pick-up and drop-off times
• On-carriageway cycleways with wayfinding signs and markings to help with cyclist navigation
• Footway parking restrictions for improved safety and access for people walking
• Double-yellow lines to improve visibility and safety at junctions
• One-way streets to help manage traffic and reduce conflicts on local streets
• Expansion of existing 20mph speed limits to enhance road safety, reduce collisions, and create a more comfortable environment for walking and cycling
• Expansion of existing Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) to manage parking demand, improve safety, and prioritise space for residents, businesses, and active travel

Have your say

We invite residents, businesses, and any other interested stakeholders to take part in the statutory consultation on these proposals.

You can make a representation or objection in writing stating the grounds on which it is being made and quoting the reference TG52/1590 (or TG52/1596 if your comment is about the School Street specifically).

Submit your view by 11.59pm on Sunday 5 October 2025 in one of the following ways:

• online via the survey on this webpage
• by email to journeysandplaces@enfield.gov.uk, or
• posted in writing to the Journeys and Places team, Enfield Council, Silver Street, Enfield, EN1 3XA.

We invite you to view the proposed plan and get involved in one or more of the following activities and events:

Following the statutory consultation period, the Council will provide a formal response to any issues raised, and use the comments received as well as information from other monitoring activities to decide on whether to make changes to the scheme.

We look forward to hearing from you over the coming weeks.

We’re getting ready to launch the statutory consultation this summer. Once it begins, we’ll notify local addresses by letter and update the project page on Let’s Talk Enfield.

During the consultation period, residents will be able to:

• Submit a written representation or objection, setting out the reasons behind it

• Share their thoughts through an online survey

• Join a local drop-in session

• Attend a live webinar to learn more and ask questions

This is a formal part of the process, and we encourage everyone to have their say.

The Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood forms part of Enfield Council’s wider ambition to create safer, greener and more inclusive streets — spaces where people of all ages and abilities feel confident to walk, cycle, wheel or use mobility aids.

On 17 January 2024 we commenced the second phase of community engagement on the proposed Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood. We delivered letters to residents and businesses in the area which included a map of the proposed interventions. Thank you to those who are already engaging with us on the proposals. In response to feedback received, we have made some minor updates to the map to display the proposed interventions more clearly. The updated map can be found in the ‘Maps & Drawings’ folder in the document section of this webpage.

The updates include:

• Moved the location of the modal filter on Monmouth Road from the east side of Oxford Road to the west side of Oxford Road as it was previously shown incorrectly. Included a shape to better show the location of the School Street camera enforced timed closures.
• Added an existing modal filter that is located on Brookside Road.
• Shifted the location of the bus gate on Plevna road slightly south. This change was made to make it clear the bus gate would be located south of the crossing near Salmon Brook.
• Changed the label of the Cycle Routes in the key to clarify these are on-carriageway cycle routes. This means that cyclists will mix with general traffic, with signage and road markings proposed to help with route finding.
• Changed the label of the parking changes to read ‘remove or relocate footway parking’, to better demonstrate the proposed changes.
• Updated the graphic for the proposed traffic calming measures to better demonstrate where these would be considered.

Enfield Council wants to create healthier, greener, and safer neighbourhoods. In September and October 2023, we heard from the community about their ideas for the proposed Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood, and about current issues that could be addressed through the project. Thank you to everyone who spoke with us at an event, shared your comments via the online interactive map, and emailed us with your views. The summary report of this engagement phase has been published on the project page (link below). Using these community insights, we have now developed a design proposal for the Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood, and invite residents to share your views with us to help inform the development of this design.

The next phase of community engagement starts on Wednesday 17 January 2024 and will run until Sunday 11 February 2024. We invite you to view the proposed plan and get involved in one or more of the following (continued overleaf):

Once this phase of community engagement has concluded, we will publish a summary document which captures the feedback we have heard from residents, businesses, and other stakeholders as well as explaining the next steps.

We look forward to listening to your views over the coming weeks.

Thank you to everyone who took part in the engagement opportunity we hosted for the Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood in autumn this year. We have now published the Engagement Summary Report which can be found under the ‘Documents’ tab on the right hand side of this project page. The report details the process we undertook to engage people in this project and hear your ideas and issues that could inform the design. It includes information on who took part and summarises what we heard from participants. These findings will be considered throughout the design process as we progress this project.

The next project phase will involve finalising a proposed design that will be shared with the public early in the new year for feedback.

We would like to thank the participants for getting involved and sharing their ideas and issues with us.

The recent community engagement period for the Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood commenced on Monday 11 September and closed on Sunday 8 October 2023. A range of activities were undertaken during this time including drop-in sessions, business surveying, online webinars, an online interactive map to collect current issues and ideas, and workshops with schools.

The Journeys and Places team would like to thank everyone who participated in these events.

An engagement findings report that summarises the engagement activities and what we heard is being prepared and will be shared on the project page later this year.

Enfield Council is proposing a Quieter Neighbourhood in the Edmonton Green area and has launched a period of community engagement to hear from residents.

We want to hear from you about your ideas that could be incorporated into the plans for the Quieter Neighbourhood, and any current issues you think the project could address.

Share your ideas and issues with us via the interactive map on the project page where you may drop a pin within the purple shaded area and provide your ideas as well as identify issues in the area. The map will be open for you to share your comments until midnight on Sunday 8 October 2023.

We will be holding a webinar on the Monday 25 September at 6pm where we will present the project and invite attendees to ask questions of the project team, and drop-in sessions will be held on Tuesday 19 and Saturday 30 September for residents to speak with the team, find out more about the project and share their ideas and issues. More information on these activities can be found in the Key Dates section of this project page.

Throughout the engagement period we will also be speaking with businesses, disability groups and schools in the area to gather their ideas and issues to inform the Edmonton Green Quieter Neighbourhood.
