In addition the junction with the High Road is an accident spot and the pavements throughout are narrow and are poorly designed for people with mobility issues.

In addition, the Cycle Super Highway 1 is situated 800m south of the station, connected to the site via the local cycle network. However, although traffic numbers on White Hart Lane are relatively low outside peak hours, the road is a hostile environment for pedestrians, people accessing public transport and cyclists. Traffic regularly exceeds the 20mph speed limit and the road is congested due to the complicated interdependent traffic lights at the High Road junction. This results in an increased risk of collisions and high levels of pollution. In a Ward where many people don’t own cars this disproportionately impacts the people who actually live here, as much of the traffic is passing through east to west. How Can White Hart Lane Become a Better Environment for People? The key aim is to accommodate the traffic but not to let it dominate. This will be achieved by two principle design moves: 1.Reduction of the width of the carriageway so cars have less room and pedestrians have more room. 2. Inclusion of features which the motorist has to negotiate in stages, so they pay attention to what is immediately in front of them and are less likely to speed. The carriageway width is reduced from 4800mm to 3400mm, the difference is shown in the drawings below, in addition a central pattern runs along the centre of the road giving the impression the road is narrower than it is. This width was agreed with Transport for London who run the buses, the emergency services, to ensure ambulances have room to pass, and Haringey 14%, the local access group. Reducing the carriageway will increase the width of the pavement all along White Hart Lane. At intervals along the road we will raise the road up to the same level as the pavement. In these sections the road is treated with a contrasting material. The combination of the ramp up and down and the visual patterning reduces the tendency to speed and keeps traffic within the 20mph limit.
