Hazellville Road

The project site is located outside of the local shopping parade between Dresden Road and Cheverton Road, within the Hillrise Ward.

Co-design workshop

Once the initial design proposal for Hazellville Road was developed, it was shared online via the project website and made available at the Archway Library. Local people could provide feedback on the design between Monday 8 September 2025 and Sunday 21 September 2025 through an online survey on the project website or via hard copies available at the Archway Library.

Additionally, an in-person engagement session was held at the St Mary's Hornsey Rise church hall on Wednesday 17 September 2025, allowing attendees to share their feedback on the design proposals and ask officers questions. The feedback from both the survey and the in-person engagement session was reviewed and considered in the development of the final design.

Hazellville Road final design

The final design for Hazellville Road includes the following:

• Widening of the pavement outside of 83 to 87 Hazellville Road to create additional space for customers and local people when visiting the local shopping parade or passing through the area.
• The creation of two in-ground planting beds with the lower bed incorporating SuDS, totalling 9.1 square metres featuring a variety of plant species chosen to provide year-round colour and interest, while supporting local biodiversity, particularly pollinating insects.
• New seating to provide an opportunity to rest for those visiting the local shopping parade, as well as for people passing through the area.
• Installation of one cargo cycle stand, to support active travel to and from the area.
• To deliver the above changes, the removal of two parking spaces is required.

Works to implement the improvements

We have now finalised the schedule of works to implementation of the project. The implementation works will be carried out on Hazellville Road from Monday 1 December 2025 and will take up to two weeks.

The traffic management plan during the works will involve the following temporary measures:

• The project site in front of 83–87 Hazellville Road and part of the south side of Dresden Road near its junction with Hazellville Road will be hoarded off during the works. Pedestrian access to all properties will be maintained throughout.
• Temporary traffic signals will be installed at either end of the hoarded work area on Hazellville Road and on Dresden Road to manage vehicle flow, with one lane running in one direction alternately.
• Parking spaces to be suspended at the following locations:
  1. Hazellville Road – from property 100 to property 88.
  2. Hazellville Road – from property 95 to property 73
  3. Dresden Road - from property 6 to the junction with Hazellville Road.
  4. Dresden Road - from property 3 to the junction with Hazellville Road.

We apologise for any inconvenience that the implementation works may cause, and we would like to thank you in advance for your co-operation during this time. If you have any queries or questions, please contact us at IGTproject@islington.gov.uk(External link)(External link).
