Banned left turn in Kingsbury, London
"John Rowland" typed
Hi all, I always thought that the reason for banned left turns was to allow pedestrians to cross a junction which is too busy to have a dedicated pedestrian phase. However, the left turn from Slough Lane to Kingsbury Road is banned, and during the phase when traffic is allowed to leave Slough Lane, traffic is allowed to turn right from Roe Green into Kingsbury Road, so pedestrians could not safely cross Kingsbury Road anyway. So why is the left turn banned, particularly when the ban forces traffic down Old Kenton Lane past a primary school? There is nothing particularly unusual about the geometry of the junction which would make the left turn dangerous or difficult. a guess The cycle route down Kingbury Road? -- Helen D.
