Caroline Pidgeon AM, the Liberal Democrat deputy chair of the London Assembly’s transport committee, has given a cautious welcome to news of planned improvements to a notorious Islington road junction.

“The junction of Penton Rise and Pentonville Road in Islington has been known as a local death-trap for cyclists and pedestrians for years and I’m pleased something seems to be in hand to deal with the problem.

Caroline joined Lib Dem Parliamentary campaigner Bridget Fox in Islington early in January to deliver newsletters, highlighting the hard work of local Lib Dem councillors and some of the negative impact the Labour Government is having on the lives of many residents in Islington.
