Work is starting on the removal of the Tottenham Hale gyratory but it appears that there is a lack of provision for road space for the planned CS1 to Tottenham. I understand that the decision on the CS1 has not yet been made, but this scheme should be factored into the current works. Does the current scheme of work leave space for the CS1 and when will the final decision on the CS1 be made and published? What are you doing to ensure that CS1 will be implemented without wasted costs and highway disturbances?
