A Community Network for Bowes Park and Bounds Green
Parking has been an issue over many years in the roads close to Bowes Park and Bounds Green stations as people park before travelling into central London on public transport.
Enfield Council is consulting with local people about introducing a Controlled Parking Zone in roads around the stations. Haringey Council has recently introduced a CPZ that operates Monday to Friday 10 am to 12 Noon in the vicinity of Bounds Green Underground station, Enfield Council is consdering a similar scheme as one of the options.
On the plus side you are more likely to find a parking space in your own street - however there is a cost associated with the CPZ permits for residents.

Like Richard I agree entirely that we need to battle local densification, it's always been on the agenda which is why we spend so much time fighting developers (as our friends from Palmerston Rd can attest) and seeking to restore a balanced community by getting more services into the ward. Which puts paid to the cheap shot about eyes lighting up with £, don't know who you're referring to but it's not us and not nice. You'd have a better idea of the good things we're working on in this area if you came to some of the things we've been organising re: NHHT and getting the best for the community - but you seem to have stopped getting involved (except for these sarcastic comments here). Yet the ward needs the strongest possible community representation. Hopefully you'll decide to get stuck in again one day.
Traffic and parking are a continual concern on this site and also for other Residents Associations and online forums across the borough. John McMullan a Harringay online site member has suggested an informal get together to talk about traffic, rat-running and parking.

I'm pretty sure that Enfield have decided not to go ahead with a CPZ in the Bounds Green area. Feedback from the consultation showed that residents were not in favour.
But I think Enfield were planning on talking with Haringey traffic engineers regarding the no left turn from Bounds Green on to Brownlow with a view to allowing such a turn and taking some pressure off Warwick Road. Not sure where that discussion has got.
