The Muswell Hill traffic chaos is set to calm down after closed roads re-open.
Colney Hatch Lane and Muswell Hill Broadway are both open to traffic after a seven week closure that caused anger among nearby businesses.
The work involved rebuilding the surface of Colney Hatch Lane in order to make it safe for passing traffic.
Haringey Council cabinet member for environment Cllr Stuart McNamara said: “We are extremely grateful to all the traders, residents and motorists for bearing with us while we carried out this vital and complex work.
“The road has re-opened ahead of schedule and in time for Christmas shoppers to enjoy the excellent retail offer in Muswell Hill in the run-up to the festive period.”
