Redbridge Council is proposing to trial a
traffic reduction scheme on Granville Road
and Albert Road in South Woodford. A ‘no
entry except for access’ restriction will prevent
motorists from using the streets as a rat
run from Ashford Road to Chigwell Road. If
progressed, the restrictions will be in force
from 7am to 7pm on weekdays. Cameras
will be able to identify if a vehicle has driven
through without stopping, and if it has, a
penalty notice will be issued. A consultation is
open until 16 July. Visit swvg.co.uk/noentry
An open day at the new community garden
in Ray Park took place in June. “We’ve been
toiling away since January to create a new
space for perennial plants, annual flowers and
medicinal herbs alongside a small kitchen
garden. The project is ongoing, but we wanted
to thank those people who have helped make
it happen and show everyone what has been
accomplished so far,” said a spokesperson
for the Woodford Greeners. A free mosaic
stepping stones workshop will be held in the
garden on 22 July. Visit swvg.co.uk/wg
