Haringey Council is arranging for the installation of much needed anti-slip paving slabs on a busy and steep stretch of footpath on Muswell Hill following a request from the Liberal Democrats.

The new surface will be installed in the next few weeks, following concerns that the pathway, on the approach to the busy bus stop on Muswell Hill, could be unsafe for pedestrians.

A team from Haringey Council’s Highways department has visited the site and contractors and have given the go-ahead to replace existing paving slabs with special anti-slip ones in the next three weeks.

Lib Dem councillor Lynne Featherstone comments:

“With winter ice and rain, we must keep the busy and extremely steep footpath along Muswell Hill as safe as possible. I welcome the Council’s decision to take action, and hope that the works will be done as soon as possible, given the present wintry weather.”
