Ponders End High Street Improvements

Enfield Council is planning to upgrade a section of the A1010 High Street in Ponders End. The project area goes from the High Street outside the Ponders End Park to the area on the High Street outside Tesco, opposite Eagle House Surgery.

The project focuses on improving the following aspects:

• Bus stops improvements work along the High Street which already commenced in early August 2021. This work is to upgrade the bus stops to provide more room for pedestrians, bus passengers and cyclists and we will be back soon to complete this work
  
  
• The condition of the road - the existing road surface is aged and in poor condition so is being renewed.
  
  
• Cycle facilities - this section of the High Street creates a gap in cycling facilities between recently completed projects on the A1010 to the north and south of this area. It is therefore proposed to close this gap with cycle facilities in both direction, northbound and southbound.

In order to facilitate the above improvements, some loading and parking changes will be required. We are currently engaging with business to ensure their loading needs are understood and feedback received during this engagement informs the designs.

We also sent letters to the community and invited people to the webinar that was held on 21^st September 2021. The copy of the letters and the slides presented during the webinars can be found in the documents library section on the right hand side of this page, along with the recording of the webinars.

Statutory consultation is also planned for later in the year ahead of the implementation around the Spring/Summer time, subject the outcome of the consultation.
