There are signs up in Barnet saying that Park Road is closed. After a very long telephone call to the council, it transpires that there was planned resurfacing work which has now been cancelled.The council is contacting the contractors to ask them to take the signs down, but if they are still there when you bring your children for lessons this evening, please ignore them and come down the road as usual.
