ALEXANDRA PARK SCHOOL WORKS - LIB DEMS SEEK ACTION ON ROAD SURFACE DAMAGE

28.10.03

A Lib Dem councillor has asked Haringey council for an urgent report of the damage to the road surface of Bidwell Gardens N22, following the decision to route works traffic for the Alexandra Park School extension through the road against the advice of council officers and contractors. The concerns follow a meeting held last week with the local residents' action group and the school's head teacher to discuss the concerns of local people about the impact of the school expansion project.

As the works will not be completed until late 2004, Alexandra Lib Dem councillor Wayne Hoban has written to the Council asking for an urgent assessment of the damage to the road, and what action will be taken to carry out repairs and avoid future damage.

Cllr Wayne Hoban, Lib Dem Deputy Leader and Alexandra councillor, comments:

"There are worrying signs of damage to the road in Bidwell Gardens, and steps must be taken to ensure the road is kept in good repair. I have asked for an urgent assessment of the present damage and I will be pressing the Council to ensure that action it taken."
