Yellow box junctions removed from Wanstead High Street

Two yellow box junctions were removed from Wanstead High Street earlier this month.

It follows an independent road safety audit at the junctions with Woodbine Place and Grove Park.

“While the report recognised the benefits of the yellow boxes, it also highlighted that their placement in proximity to a zebra crossing was causing confusion for some drivers and potential safety concerns. In light of this, the decision was taken to remove the boxes,” said a Redbridge Council spokesperson.

The two box junctions were installed in October 2024.
