  • enable residents to walk and cycle safely from their front door, to connect with public transport or major walking and cycling routes
  • increase the health and wellbeing of residents and strengthen community cohesion

Quieter Neighbourhoods and the wider Journeys and Places programme intended to achieve Council aims to see more people walking, cycling or using public transport for short trips in the borough. Long-term benefits include better public health, reduced pressures on the NHS, less motor vehicle pollution and improved air quality, which will also help deal with the declared climate emergency.

    Survey - Meadway

    Introduction

    The Fox Lane Area Quieter Neighbourhood has now been made permanent. The Council would like to hear further views on whether the scheme would work better for residents if the current restriction on Meadway was removed entirely, or operated on a timed basis.

    No decision has been made on this idea, but it is something we would like to explore further, gaining greater clarity on your preferences. If this idea is taken forward, further consultation will take place. Alongside your views, further work will be undertaken to consider the traffic impacts of this proposal.

    This engagement is in addition to other changes we are proposing, including exemption permits for Blue Badge Holders for the camera-controlled closures. Permits will allow Blue Badge holders to nominate a motor vehicle of their choice that will be able to pass through camera controlled restrictions.

    The existing restriction for motor vehicles on the Meadway is shown in the image below.

    Consultation - Fox Lane & Surrounding Streets Quieter Neighbourhood

    Residents in the Fox Lane & Surrounding Streets Quieter Neighbourhood Area have raised concerns with Enfield Council over traffic issues in the area for many years. This trial is a response to those concerns. 

    The trial is being funded from the Transport for London Streetspace Programme, 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.
