    Reports that Waltham Forest Town Hall was illuminated to represent the colours of the Palestinian flag are inaccurate. October is Black History Month and to celebrate the council is hosting a range of events for the community.

    We’ve reduced congestion, improved road safety and #airquality in residential streets by installing 49 road closures through the #EnjoyWalthamForest programme over the last 5 years. Today the finishing touches were put on the one outside George Mitchell School #CleanAirDay

    🚲To keep road users safe we’ve started using @TfL powers on Forest Road to enforce against drivers entering mandatory cycle lanes. 🚗 In the first 6 months drivers who enter them will get a warning, then penalty charge notices will be issued. 👉More: orlo.uk/XRLDT

    UPDATE: Hoe Street has reopened but is reduced to a single lane with traffic lights in place. @thameswater engineers have repaired the water leak and it is hoped the road will fully reopen tomorrow morning.
    INFO: Hoe Street #Walthamstow will be CLOSED between Church Hill Road and Milton Road from 8pm this evening until Monday 3 June AM while engineers work on an emergency water leak. Traffic delays are likely. Pedestrian routes are unaffected, and bus routes have been diverted.
