The junction of Baring Street and New North Road is a source of great concern for local residents. Baring Street is a very busy road, with buses and heavy traffic, and there is at present no pedestrian crossings or traffic lights at the junction with New North Road. It is a very dangerous junction for pedestrians to cross, and also dangerous for motorists, who become agitated and irritated at the length of time it takes to get out of the junction. The situation is also complicated by the street being on the border between Hackney and Islington.
St Peters Councillors have met with local residents to discuss the issue, and now have agreement from Islington Council Highways department to carry out a full traffic survey of the area, and to consult on improvements to the junction.
