as there's an old railway line across the middle which completely separates the two zones to either side.
That's normal. You need a line (real or imaginary) in the middle of every LTN that cars can't cross. The St Peter's (Angel) LTN in Islington was created mostly by bollarding the canal bridges.
Given the amount of house building that is planned and already happening north of Wightman I suspect they'll be keeping it open to alleviate that extra traffic.
New developments in Haringey aren't car free? They need to change that if they're serious about this shiz.

Missed this at the time. The line also blocks pedestrians, there's only one route through on foot which is why they feel like quite different zones.

I think they're no street parking but the big development being built at the moment (Clarendon Yard) still seems to have car parks for residents.

Yes. I don't know all the areas but the Turnpike Lane East LTN (the one with Duckett's Green above) is weird as there's an old railway line across the middle which completely separates the two zones to either side. It makes me wonder whether other LTNs have been designed just based around the boundary roads without thinking about what's in them.
I have strong suspicions that Wightman will be kept open. The LTN they're doing at the moment (Bruce Grove) has a couple of B roads (Belmont Road/Downhills Way {which is very residential} and Philip Lane) as boundaries.
