The road sign in Connell Crescent prohibits motor traffic from 3pm to 7 pm on Monday to Friday. The inner lane of Western Avenue here is a slip lane to turn into the North Circular, and it often jams up in the evening rush hour. Traffic usewd to escape by using the narrow residential Connell Crescent which exits onto the North Circular. From 2015 there were many appeals from motorists caught by traffic cameras, but most appeals were dismissed.
