Update 11 October 2019

Dear Residents of Fox Lane and surrounding streets,

Thank you for your continued patience as we have developed ideas to address the shared concerns of ‘rat running’ motor traffic, pollution and safer streets throughout the Fox Lane area.

Over the summer we have developed a robust set of measures that we feel will address these issues. Over the last couple of weeks you may have seen cameras installed around the area. We have updated the data we have on the number of vehicles entering and exiting the whole area. This will provide a fully up-to-date set of baseline data that is more comprehensive then the volume data counts collected earlier in the year by the tubes placed across the roads.

We will shortly be sending out a leaflet to all homes to invite residents to a pop-up engagement event in Palmers Green. We are planing to host this from 3pm to 8pm on a weekday to allow people to drop-in and review the plans, speak to Officers and leave comments. At the same time as the physical event, comments will also be able to be made online.

At this stage, the intention is to implement the plan on an experimental basis. This means that once the measures are put in place, there will be at least a 6 month period where you can provide formal comments on the scheme. Once a minimum of 6 months has passed, we will then review these comments and formally respond to the issues raised in a report for the scheme. Based on this report, a further decision will then be taken on whether to implement the scheme as per the trial, to make some adjustments or to remove the scheme entirely.

We have set-up the opportunity to ‘subscribe’ to the Fox Lane project. If you do this, as well as receiving notification through the door, as soon as details of the pop-up event are confirmed we will e-mail you to let you know. To subscribe please click the 'Subscribe' button to the right of this page.

Residents and business owners within the Fox Lane area are encouraged to subscribe.
