Repair Church Path cycle route

Community Ideas•4 years ago Repair Church Path cycle route which stops at Church Road, and improving signs and advertising to reach it - it could be a significant part of getting people from the North Circular into west/central London. Put it on a main cycle route and/or cycling Quietway.

Improve Church Path cycle lane

Community Ideas•4 years ago Several people have been killed by heavy goods vehicles over the years. Please repair what could be a very significant cycle route - Church Path - it just suddenly stops at Church Road, and is poorly signed and advertised - it could be a very significant part of getting people from the North Circular into west/central London. Put it on a main cycle route and/or cycling Quietway.

Better signposting for Roundwood Park

Community Ideas•4 years ago Better signposting for Roundwood Park as it looks too private – it needs to be a safe, accessible space for people to use.

Green Church Path

Community Ideas•4 years ago Make the church path area cleaner and greener

The cycle path on Kingsbury Road should be improved

Community Ideas•4 years ago It should be moved so that it is not directly next to the cars, but surrounded by pavement instead - it is currently dangerously close to cars and currently businesses use the cycle path as a loading bay for their deliveries. The cycle path should also be marked in a brighter colour so that people notice it and know what it is – currently it isn’t clear.

The park should be more child-friendly with fun activities and children’s days

Community Ideas•4 years ago The park should be more child-friendly with fun activities and children’s days – similar to Dunstable Downs or Northala Hills. Having better parks closer to home would mean less travelling to reach fun activities for children.

Convert Berkeley Road green space back to allotment

Community Ideas•4 years ago Convert Berkeley Road green space back to allotment

Improve facilities

Community Ideas•4 years ago Improve facilities (eg toilets in the parks, free seeds for residents to encourage them to grow and add to local wildlife)

Improve green space.

Community Ideas•4 years ago The area at the corner of Burns Road and Crownhill Road is a patch of open space with a dying flower bed. This spot is a flytipping and anti-social behaviour hotspot, and it needs some love. It could be turned into a much nicer place while having some of these problems 'designed out', for instance. This place is also just opposite three schools and is in one of the new 'school streets' and 'healthy neighbourhoods' - so if the area was going to be amended and adjusted to make the place better for schools and to reduce driving etc, then it would be nice to tie it in with an improvement to the street and it's greenery too. I would suggest doing something like planting a little meadow garden or wild garden that is a bit more hardy here as it will take up the space where people leave their rubbish. You could also widen the pavements and move some of the street furniture around as there is an old man who walks up and down this road daily with a zimmer frame and he has problems wheeling over the broken pavements and around the tree roots and telephone junction boxes. You could also maybe even plant a green wall alongside or in front of the big tall side of the house at the end of the terrace here which is exposed and could be turned into something pretty?
