A406 Bounds Green Improvement
You are here: Home - Futures - A406 Bounds Green Improvement
Scheme Outline
Upgrade of the existing A406 North Circular Road to dual carriageway. This Transport for London project is a watered down version of the improvements planned but never implemented by the Highways Agency. It involves less property demolition and is a fraction of the cost, but is unlikely to be grade-separated. Even so, any extra capacity here is welcome - it is currently a single-carriageway section of an otherwise dualled and grade-separated road in a busy urban area.
