    Traffic noise maps of public parks in Haringey May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above. London Borough of Haringey 1 1. Albert Road Recreation Ground 2.

  • Liveable Crouch End Inbox Emails During Trial Period
    Appendix C: Liveable Crouch End inbox emails during trial period PRE-TRIAL WEEK I heard about cyclists, and cycle lanes, but cyclists are the minority, as you have to be incredibly fit to cycle around Muswell Hill. They already have Ally Pally and residential roads they can use without a problem. What about the elderly and disabled, or the people who need a car to shop. People with families and people like myself caring for elderly parents. I am very concerned that, as is often the way with trials, this could well become permanent, along with other 'trial' measures that will not only have an adverse impact generally, but could make life more difficult for people like myself with very limited mobility who rely absolutely on a car for getting around. Last January, after receiving a card about the project, I emailed Liveable Crouch End expressing my concern that the emphasis on walking, cycling and public transport would mean that the needs of people with disabilities who use a car from necessity would be overlooked. Several times this year I’ve needed to drive sick members of my family to the door of the doctor, to Archway to vist The Whittington Hospital, into Crouch End and to Finsbury Park. Those journeys have all involved turning left out of my road. ,to pedestrians, to people with chest illnesses and to the elderly. more pollution due to congestion I am also concerned about the increase in pollution that will occur in this area particularly in the areas I walk to e.g.
