Princess Frederica primary school currently has a consultation underway to install a zebra crossing on College Road, just below the railway bridge. I hope it goes ahead, as I think it would improve safety at a difficult junction. When I went to John Keble school recently, I was quizzed about safety at their crossing. This is a more complicated situation.
The school crossing patrol person is retiring and the Council does not want to pay for a replacement, because the traffic lights at that part of Manor Park Road make the street safer to cross than many others. The school has also indicated that it does not want to pay for a replacement either. However, traffic flows in the area are subject to a lot of change because of the works on Harlesden Town Centre. This is likely to alter traffic flows, especially in and out of the Harlesden Tesco car park. The question is precisely what are those effects, and how can the detailed scheme design mitigate them?
