Why are Residential Main Roads not seen as ‘neighbourhood’ or residential roads by Council? Are we not part of the neighbourhood? Main road residents matter.

Happy to see it confirmed that people do in fact care far more about improving our high streets, rather than side roads at the cost of them.

Unfortunately, like many other aspects of our so called democracy, some voices are more organised and heard than others.

Louise Krupski Louise Krupski the polling station is right by these planters giving high car-owning wealthy Manor Lane north a quiet traffic free road and our non car-owning flat double the traffic. We have no crossings, no bike lane or hangars. No investment from you so no votes from us.

I'd be the Main Roads Mayor if elected London Mayor (no chance of me ever standing, you and I will be relieved to hear!). I'd include the ‘main’ rd cousins: the busy rds that may not be main throughfares. Here's why & how I'd focus on main rds johnstewartliveblog.wordpress.com/2024/04/28/why…

Mums For Lungs Clean Air is something everyone would like and few would be against the concept.
But why do MumsForLungs promote LTNs that push pollution into the lungs of other people's kids? The kids that live or go to school on boundary roads of LTNs.

Mums For Lungs PLEASE help protect children on sacrificial roads. I’m a mum, grandmother and retired nursery/primary teacher and know that all children matter. Re-routing traffic from select roads to other roads solves nothing and increases health inequalities. This is environmental injustice!

Everyone wants low traffic where they live but only a few would seek to export traffic from their road to their neighbours.
But if you call a traffic relocation scheme a 'low traffic neighbourhood (LTN)' you might get 45% support from those inside the LTN. x.com/LittleNinjaUK/…

Genuine question.

Would Hackney people (and indeed anyone) want to be represented by a parliamentarian who swears in public?

Please discuss.

I read the article.

I still have no idea what Caroline Woodley has done for Hackney in her first 100 days in office.

Guess her question “what have I done?” was a rhetorical one.

Thanks to low traffic schemes, which benefit only select groups of very lucky people, bus journey times are often twice as long as they used to be, cars having been forced on to the main road.

15 Minute Pabs 🚲 Katy Rodda Still Wants 2m Christopher Day The irony is that while you happily drive on the roads other people live on while not wanting them to drive on yours, I cycle almost everywhere I go. But that doesn't stop me from seeing the inequity of LTNs and realising there are better and fairer ways to increase active travel

'Meeting its objectives so far.'
Does that mean this LTN intended to put an extra 5k vehicles on already busy roads?
Acre Lane: +561 vehicles a day
King's Avenue: +855 vehicles a day
A23: +969 vehicles a day
A205: +2903 vehicles a day

Shocking that this is seen as a positive.

Louise Krupski are you saying families who live on/up to 500m from the S Circular support the terrible LTN in Lee Green? As my councillor you are not interested how it impacts red route communities like ours. Exposure to air pollution isn’t about surveys but inequality in health
