Our council keep cutting down trees and then they don't replace them. This is the case on my street, which is already so bare. Trees are the cornerstone of preventing some of the toxic pollution and our city needs them. Secondly, this council's phones have very lengthy recordings about council tax. EVERYONE who calls is forced to listen to this, even when calling for something totally unrelated. Then, there is the rubbish dumped on the streets issue, letting our area down. On the short school walk, we see a high amount of rubbish dumped on our streets, plastic bottles, junk food packaging and so on, making the area look neglected (which it is) and simply a bad place to live and work. Then, Enfield council's communication is pretty poor and fragmented. It can take a huge amount of battling through the system before justice comes through. Last and never least, the cycle lanes put in have significantly and severely increased the congestion and pollution in our area. A very badly designed project that now has severe consequences. Stagnant cars and trucks create three fold more pollution than moving ones. Narrowing our roads was an ill thought concept, also carried out without public consultation or involvement. Our area, your choices, it seems. A very heavy top down approach. At the very least, we need a lot more trees to combat the poor air quality in Enfield. We need trees in ALL of Enfield, not just in the privileged parts.
