Happy yellow box junction day 🙌🏻

You can see how delighted I am to see this new addition to Bounds Green junction making it safer for residents

Thanks to all the campaigners who have fought so hard to get it installed & to @mikehakata.bsky.social & Cllr Seema Chandwani who made it happen so quickly

Sometimes it’s the small things that make a really big difference to residents & this is one of them

As you can see, I’m really pleased to have supported residents with their request for a new sign correctly labelling the pathway connecting the Three Avenues in Bounds Green

🧵 On Wednesday I saw for myself the collision site at Bounds Green junction which has destroyed the barrier at the corner into Durnsford Road caused by a speeding driver

The junction is dangerous, risking the safety of residents, children & families I represent
