Mobile tyre fitting
in Tottenham Hale.

A fitter at your car
in Tottenham Hale.

Everything here moves. Commuters park and go, lorries feed the estates, and the retail park fills up all weekend, so a flat tyre at Tottenham Hale is usually found by somebody already late for something. The damage comes off the industrial roads more often than not, steel offcuts and broken kerb along Watermead Way and on the approaches to the A503 Ferry Lane. Rather than crawl through the junction traffic on a deflating tyre, leave the car standing and have the work done there.

Drives, bays and car parks.

Estate yards come first: a unit at Lennox Trading Estate or Orbital Business Park gives flat tarmac with nothing passing. Next best is a resident bay in one of the blocks, provided the wheel can be reached without lying in a traffic lane. The retail park bays and the supermarket parking either side of it are for customers and carry time limits, so they suit a car already sitting in one rather than a car driven to one. Underground parking needs its height barrier checked first.

Calls come from the flats built up around the station, from the retail park and the Food Warehouse end of it, and heavily from the estates: Lockwood and Rosebery Industrial Parks, Uplands Business Park and the yards facing Watermead Way. Addresses run N17 and N15 across the area. On an estate a fitter has room and level ground, which makes for the easiest work there is. In the residential blocks the bays are controlled and often underground, so a low ceiling or a tight ramp is worth flagging when you book. Ferry Lane, The Hale and Monument Way are all A503 and carry red route restrictions, which rules every one of them out, and the station forecourt with them.
