“ Hello
I hope its ok to post a comment here as we don't actually live in the area yet - we are in the process of moving into a house in Arkley. Our one reservation about our move was the heavy traffic on the road leading into High Barnet - it's terrible. If we were not just about retired and not always having to get somewhere on time there is no way we could have considered moving to this area, and how the ambulances cope when every second counts I just can't imagine. From what I have read, the spirit of this generous legacy was based on ensuring the area remained an area for wildlife to thrive - I dread to think how much pollution is being thrown out by all of the cars sitting in queues already trying to get into the High Street and the damage it is doing to the environment -
quite apart from the wildlife, we have to consider people including school children and people making their way to the hospital. Even though its clear people do need homes are there no better ways to provide them?? ”
