Enfield Council is working to encourage more people to walk, wheel and cycle in the borough by developing a network of active travel routes in Enfield. As part of the Journeys and Places programme, Enfield Council is proposing a walking and cycling route which will extend from Old Park Road N13 at its junction with Aldermans Hill, and end at Cycleway 1 at Sweet Briar Grove at its junction with Denton Road.

The route will run through the Fox Lane Quieter Neighbourhood, and will connect with Cycleway 20 at Green Lanes, run through Firs Farm wetlands, connect with Cycleway 21 at Northern Avenue at its junction with Dunholme Road. There are opportunities to review and make improvements to the existing facilities along the route, as well as introduce new facilities for walking and cycling.

This project is currently at a very early stage with no designs having been developed yet. The development of the designs as well as the delivery of the project is subject to further funding. Should further funding be secured, Enfield Council will look to design and then implement the project.

    Earlier this year we engaged the community on the Old Park Road N13 to Pymmes Park Walking and Cycling Route project. Residents and other stakeholders shared their ideas and issues to inform a future design for this route. The early engagement report is now complete and published on this project page. Thank you to those who engaged with us on this project so far.

    Enfield Council currently does not have any further funding to progress the project at this stage. Should further funding be secured to progress the project, this page will be updated and published in the Journeys and Places Hub. Residents will be notified of any future engagement and consultation opportunities.

    The Journeys and Places Team would like to express our gratitude to all those who actively participated in the engagement process that took place earlier this year for the Old Park Road N13 to Pymmes Park Walking and Cycling Route project. The early engagement report is currently being prepared and will be published shortly.

    The ideas and issues raised by residents during the early engagement process will inform the future design for the project. Currently, the development of the designs as well as the delivery of the project is subject to further funding. Should further funding be secured, we will provide updates on the project page and look to progress the project through to a design and then implementation. This would mean that the draft traffic order will be subject to statutory consultation where residents and other interested stakeholders will be able to submit their objections and representations to the proposal. We will write to residents and businesses in the area at this stage as well as post an update on the project page with more information.

    We sincerely appreciate your continued involvement and support of this project.

    We want to hear from you about your ideas for walking, wheeling and cycling in this area that could be incorporated into our planning for the Old Park Road to Pymmes Park Walking and Cycling Route. This includes ideas for making it safer, more accessible and enjoyable such as more planting, nearby cycle parking or identifying points at which people could cross the road. We’d also like to hear about any issues people face in regard to walking, wheeling and cycling in the area, and your feedback on where the route is proposed to run.

    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 areas, and provide your ideas as well as identify issues related to walking and cycling in the area.

    The map will be open for you to share your comments until midnight Sunday 11 June 2023.
