Borough works have put a contraflow in place on the A103 Broadway in both directions at its junction with Middle Lane, according to TfL's traffic status page. The works began on 3 August and are listed as running until 21 September, with TfL warning that "delays are possible". The severity is recorded as minimal.
That means traffic on the Broadway between Hornsey and Crouch End, including the bus routes that use it, is likely to be held at the contraflow for another fortnight.
