EDMONTON MP Andy Love and Deputy Mayor of London Nicky Gavron have joined forces to welcome Transport for London's plans to install traffic lights on the Great Cambridge Roundabout.

The junction with the A10 and the A406 is famous for its traffic chaos during rush hour and the lights are seen as a welcome step to try and regulate traffic flows at peak times.

Mr Love said: "I first raised this issue on behalf of my constituents some years ago and have been pressing for traffic lights since then. Drivers regularly take their lives in their hands at this roundabout. Hopefully the lights will make it a much safer junction."

An exhibition at Alyward School, Windmill Road, Edmonton, sets out the proposed scheme which is set to begin next month and will take 12 to 15 weeks to complete.
