NO MENTION OF IMPROVED BUS, PEDESTRIAN OR CYCLE ACCESS.
TfL and Grainger plc are working in partnership to prepare plans for a residential development at the Cockfosters station car park site.
- Utilise brownfield, public sector land to help deliver around 400 new private and affordable homes for rent;
- Preserve and enhance the setting of the Grade II listed London Underground station;
- Through quality design, create a positive relationship between any new development and Trent Park Conservation Area and
Grade II listed park and gardens which form part of the Greenbelt;
- To create new public and private spaces and improve the access point to the London Loop trail and Trent Park;
- To encourage a shift to more sustainable modes of public transport and reduce the need to travel by car in the local area; and
- To deliver a car-free development, with the exception of disabled car parking for both station users and new residents.
An initial public event was held on 18th June. A detailed public exhibition is due autumn 2019 followed by a detailed planning application.
Feedback can be provide via the following link.

The plans for this scheme have been revised following earlier consultation.
From Enfield Council:
We are close to finalising the designs of the A1010 North scheme, and welcome your feedback on the draft plans. Copies of the A1010 North design drawings, draft traffic management orders and statement of reasons are available to download in the document library on the right of this page . Please view these and then provide your comments using the survey below. (See web link)

The A105 southbound has segregated cycle lanes and then a bus lane until the bus lane ends just short of the North Circular. The bus lane ending creates a vicious pinch point for cyclists with a metal barrier on the left and cars pushing into the lane from the right to avoid the queue of vehicles turning right into the North Circular.
As the pavement on the left is very wide, there is enough space to paint a short stretch of bicycle lane onto the pavement, starting where the bus lane ends (so as to not interfere with the bus stop) and ending at Regents Avenue where the road is wide enough and one can continue into the bicycle box at the North Circular junction.

On the northbound side of this road, the dropped kerbs at junctions are not dropped enough. On my road bike I hit the rims even at low speed so I'm forced to not use the cycle path on this stretch. Reported to Enfield Council 2019/02/10.

Firs Farm park has undergone a transformation with the wetlands project and more exciting facilities are planned. This proposed Quietway cycle route will make it easier and safer for Enfield residents to get there by bike or by foot.

Enfield Council through Cycle Enfield are seeking views from the public on a number of ideas for the area shown in the map. In their words:
"We have a number of ideas that will not only help more people to walk and cycle but will also enhance community spaces, making Haselbury Neighbourhood a better place to live. Help shape our designs before we carry out a consultation later in the year. You have until Sunday 1 July to share your views."
***Note that there are separate threads below for each of the 13 drawings***
THESE DESIGNS ARE NOW REVISED FOR THE STATUTORY CONSULTATION

There are no contraflow signs when entering Devonshire Rd from Adermans Hill. Cyclists have reported hostility towards them as they ride "against the flow". The markings are correct as the cyclist enters Devonshire Rd from A105 but of course the drivers do not see that.

A105 Junction Green Dragon lane
Serious safety issue due to low visability of cycle lane and wide sweeping junction allowing drivers to turn at speed. The danger areas are one of the two lanes of traffic exiting GDL not giving way to bikes, or a left hook by drivers turning into GDL (cyclists will not have seen driver signaling from behind).
This junction should always have been either a) signalised or b) low-traffic neighbourhood treatment given to Green Dragon Lane and area to reduce traffic volume on GDL.
We suggest:
1) reducing GDL to two lanes only;
2) removing ped island;
3) adding reclaimed space to footway to make carriageway narrower to cross;
4) set back cycle lane one car's length before the junction, as for eg Park Ave treatment.

While we recognise that a pedestrian crossing would delay traffic at this junction we think that pedestrians should be prioritised.

Short, delayed green signal for cyclists NB with push button at junction A105 / Station Road. Most cyclists stay in the carriageway We suggest removing push button and a green cycle phase northbound moving with the traffic on Green Lanes. Drivers turning into Station Road will have to give way to bikes going ahead, with the same rules applying as for cars turning into any side road. This is easy and should be a quick fix!

At A105 junction Fox Lane, north-bound cycle lane crosses a very wide junction - difficult to cross Fox Ln on foot, flared turning allows vehicles to turn at speed
1) Filtered permeability in Fox Lane neighbourhood would reduce traffic volume and the dangers at this junction;
2) failing that, perhaps a narrow entrance to Fox Lane with a planter in the carriageway or
3) a parallel zebra crossing over the mouth of the junction

Long wait for pedestrian crossing the South area of the triangle at the junction of A105 / Aldermans Hill. Danger of people darting across when not safe to do so.
We suggest a signalised zebra crossing, allowing pedestrians to cross while traffic turns into Aldermans Hill but giving them priority

South-bound delay to cyclists at the A105 Triangle junction.
We suggest a green cycle light to go ahead while traffic is stopped but giving way to pedestrians

Drivers are parking on the cycle lanes where there are no separators eg outside Iceland
We suggest wand-orcas or planters are added - this is an easy win so is a high priority

There is a 40-second or more delay after pushing the button before the ped/cycle phase (on the west side of the crossing) at the A10 toucan crossing Salmons Brook. This delay leads to some people risking crossing outside of the green phase on a 40mph road where speeding is rife.
20 seconds would be more acceptable, as for the east side of the crossing.

Signpost this quiet route from A105/Uvedale Road junction to Enfield Town Park (a back gate) This is also a route to Cecil Road/Enfield Town itself

The current filter at the end of Blagdens Lane is not suitable for cycles and in it's current (bent) form even a hindrance to wheelchairs and buggies.

Signpost this quiet route via Broomfield Ave, Cranford Ave, Ashford Ave and emerge opposite gates of Arnos Park

Quoting from the proposal: "This short section will provide an initial link from the A105 major scheme to the Salmons Brook cycle route." Part of Quietway 18.
The main feature is an improved junction at Bury Street West and Church Street, with a 2.5m wide two-way cycle track to take cyclists from that junction to Blakesware Gardens (and onto the Salmons Brook cycle route).
Also some rain gardens and other improvements.
