David Gutmann (Times Letters, July 13) is clearly confusing the situation in Torrington Park with Barnet Council's proposals to reinstate the width restrictions in Ashurst Road, Buxted Road and Friary Road.

By the standards of the council's so-called traffic consultation on the Tally Ho development, the number of objections made to the draft traffic orders are a massive vote against putting in width restrictions.

But for the council's ploy of issuing the statutory orders just before Christmas, there would have been more objections.

I urge residents to attend the Finchley & Golders Green area environment sub-committee meeting at 7pm on Tuesday at Avenue House, East End Road, Finchley.
