Healthy streets schemes

We are working to support boroughs in the delivery of their schemes within the current funding environment. In places this means new cycle routes and low traffic neighbourhoods and in others prioritising buses and making journey times faster and more reliable.

Funding for your borough

We provide funding to boroughs and local communities for transport improvements in your local area.

Local Implementation Plan (LIP)

The LIP is produced by the London Borough of Enfield and agreed with us. It sets out the details on transport infrastructure changes in a three-year period to support the Mayor's Transport Strategy.

Find out more about LIP funding.

LIP targets for Enfield

Each borough has set targets in their LIP against the Mayor's Transport Strategy outcomes - we track and report on progress against these targets in the LIP3 MTS outcomes borough data pack.

For example, the car ownership in the borough was 127,188 in 2019. The LIP target to reduce car ownership by 2021 is 124,200.

We also work with boroughs to encourage more cycling. We recorded 11,033 daily cycle trips on average starting in Enfield between 2015 and 2018.

More resident and visitor population figures are on the GLA website.

Vision Zero in your borough

We are working with boroughs to reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries from all road collisions to zero by 2041. They are responsible for enforcing safe speeds on their roads, as well as leading community programmes to encourage using roads safely.  Find out more about Vision Zero.

Helping your community

The Vision Zero dashboard enables organisations and members of the public to more easily access and interpret collision data. In sharing collision data in this way, organisations can better identify the road danger challenges specific to their respective sectors and communities, and work together with us, London's boroughs and other agencies to tackle them.

The dashboard currently comprises collision data from 2017-2020 and will soon include future data and further analysis capability.

TfL's Motorcycle safety courses

We offer a range of free online and face to face motorcycle safety training courses across all boroughs to help ensure motorcyclists stay safe on London's busy roads and support the Vision Zero objective to eliminate all deaths and serious injuries on London's roads by 2041.

Electric scooter (e-scooters) trial

In partnership with London Councils, we're running an e-scooters trial. On Monday 7 June 2021 e-scooters became available to rent in a small number of London boroughs. Working together on a single trial means the trial can run consistently across participating boroughs, with safety at its core.

We are still inviting boroughs to join the trial. If you would like to get involved, please get in touch.

What we're working on in Enfield

• We consult local communities on a range of projects every year. Search our new consultation and engagement hub - Have Your Say
• Find out about major works and events near you
• See some ongoing TfL improvements and projects in or near Enfield

Work now going on in your borough includes:

• Mini-Hollands - the borough's £30m investment is creating joined-up local networks that encourage more people to cycle while making it easier to walk
• Piccadilly line upgrade - new signalling systems and a fleet of newly designed, high-capacity, walk-through, air-cooled trains are being added on the Piccadilly line first, with the Bakerloo, Central and Waterloo & City lines to follow

Bus network changes

From time to time - after consulting the public - we alter bus routes to reflect changing patterns in demand. We also make temporary changes, often because of road works. See the latest bus changes.

Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ)

The Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) operates across all London boroughs and the City of London. The M25 is not in the zone. This is part of the commitment by the Mayor and TfL to help every Londoner breathe cleaner air.

The ULEZ operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends (except Christmas Day), with a £12.50 daily charge for vehicles that do not meet the required emissions standards.

If you drive anywhere within the ULEZ, and your vehicle does not meet the emissions standards, you could face a daily charge of £12.50. Use the TfL vehicle checker to see if your vehicle is compliant.

Our assets in Enfield

Assets we maintain in your borough include:

• Four Tube stations
• Six London Overground stations
• Around 570 bus stops - see all 45 day bus routes in Enfield
• One bus station
• One coach stop
• Around 210 traffic signals
• Over 18 kilometres of red routes

See a map of our assets in London.

Cockfosters

Work to modernise Cockfosters Tube station on the Barnet-Enfield border is now complete, making it the 80th station on the Tube network to be made step-free.

The lift, which serves both platforms at the station, was craned into the station and built on site. New tiling and brick work around the new lift was carefully selected to match the Grade II listed station's heritage design. It will vastly improve access to the station and the wider network for people with accessibility needs.

We maintain our assets until they need to be renewed or disposed of as set out in our asset management plan. We do this by:

• Servicing them regularly to keep them operational
• Repairing or replacing faulty assets

Report a problem on a London street with our Streetcare tool.

We do not maintain in Enfield:

• Non-red route roads - these roads are maintained by Enfield
• Litter removal on red routes - this is also the borough's responsibility
• Network Rail track at London Overground stations - contact Network Rail
• Taxis and mini cabs - these are owned by taxi drivers and minicab offices
• Three bus garages in Enfield that are owned and managed by bus companies
• Taxi ranks on borough roads. Cars and other vehicles parked on taxi ranks can be reported to Enfield

Report private hire vehicles (PHVs) parked on ranks or unattended taxis on ranks directly to us.
