Construction update August 2024
Works to deliver the Enfield Town to Broxbourne Walking and Cycling Route are progressing well.
Works currently underway
Phase 1 of the works between Tenniswood Road and Carterhatch Lane are nearing completion. We are currently finishing the installation of the ramps to connect the path from the New River to Tenniswood Road and Carterhatch Lane, with the final layer being completed this week.
Phase 2 of the works between Carterhatch Lane and Goat Lane are also currently underway. Alterations to the designs of this section were required to ensure no damage was caused to the existing tree roots. The top layer of the path along this section is scheduled to be installed next week.
Upcoming works
The next phase of construction is Phase 3 between Goat Lane and Turkey Brook. We have cleared the vegetation and trimmed the trees to allow the construction team to access the area. We are now beginning to excavate along this section to allow for the construction of the path. Parking restrictions will be in place on Worcesters Avenue to allow for a welfare unit, site stores and access to the New River.
Planning of Phases 4,5 and 6 from Turkey Brook to the M25 are currently underway and we will provide more details on these phases in the coming months.
Path Opening
Phases 1, 2 and 3 between Tenniswood Road and Turkey Brook are expected to open for public use in December 2024 after tree planting and safety audits are completed. The final phases connecting the path up to the M25 are then likely to be opened in early to mid-2025.
