Need better Road Markings to safeguard pedestrians. Maybe a junction box. Traffic coming from the Harrow Road
to Wembley Hill Road drive over and blocks the the pedestrian crossing even when there is a Green Man signal to cross. This is a busy crossing for school children

By the time they complete the Copland and Ujima site opposite, travelling down the High Road will be like walking through a Wind Tunnel.

Looks very claustrophobic for Ark Elvin School, hemmed in on all sides.

Yes. I have heard the school is disappointed that the development will overwhelm their building.

Ark Elvin school moved backwards from the pervious Copland High School site landgrabbing parts of the playing fields behind them - if they hadn't moved backwards then they wouldn't face being blocked in by tower blocks!!!

Yes it was part of a land deal with Brent Council - basically the land at the back for the land at the front. It always was the intention for housing/shops along the High Road. This is more than 10 years ago: https://wembleymatters.blogspot.com/2014/04/copland-land-deal-for-rebuild-and.html
