Traffic Restrictions and Diversions
M3 Closed After Crash Causes Long Queues
Traffic is stopped in both directions due to a collision, leading to significant delays.
Harrow Council has issued a temporary traffic order to facilitate the works. This order permits road closures and parking restrictions on Pinner View and surrounding streets, including Headstone Gardens, Kingsfield Avenue, and Cunningham Park. Drivers will encounter diversions on routes such as Victor Road, Albert Road, Harrow View, and Parkside Way.
The temporary traffic order, cited as the Harrow (Pinner View) Temporary Traffic Order 2026, has a legal duration of up to 18 months. However, the council anticipates the gas works themselves will be completed within the scheduled six-week period. Exceptions to the restrictions are in place for emergency services, essential work vehicles, and property access.
Poonam Pathak, strategic head of traffic, highways and asset management at Harrow Council, confirmed the order's operational dates and anticipated completion of the works. The restrictions will only be enforced when appropriate traffic signs are displayed and can be lifted by police or civil enforcement officers.
