Good morning

A thin week for hard news and a fuller one for things to do: apples on Sunday, a mending festival at the Town Hall on Saturday, and a bus diversion that will last until 23 October.

Getting around

91 and N91 buses diverted off Hornsey Road until 23 October

Routes 91 and N91 towards Trafalgar Square are running via Seven Sisters Road and Isledon Road because of a burst water main on Hornsey Road. Buses are not serving the Sobell Centre stop. The diversion has been in place since 11 October. READ →
