This is what gentrification in Hackney looks like. 🤦‍♂️

Graham Rd, unprecedentedly congested by LTNs. Virtually all day, every day, now made worse by Dalston Ln partly closed. Hackney Council please open LDN fieldsLTN or at least ex major route Richmond Rd, like you will for hackney marathon. Today @ 2pm.👇 Our health’s at stake

The UK LTN Résistance Cynical, and sickening hypocrisy from con-artist Mete Coban, who helped turning Hackney’s residential main roads into a noisy, smelly, polluting hell.

The Fox 👤 Social Environmental Justice Meryl O'Rourke Yes, and worse still LTNs make these residential main roads rather unpleasant and unhealthy for its residents.

Bob From Accounts 🚲 Weren’t you part of the cycle lobby some years ago, insisting the bus lane on Balls Pond Road, which your pictures show, become a (dreadfully designed) two way cycle lane? Reeks of double standards.

Bob From Accounts 🚲 Richmond Road was a main route. It should never have been considered for closure as part of LTN or otherwise. Also, there’s no such thing as “main road traffic”.

Even though I don’t disagree with some things they say, it appears that Bob and other LTN extremists are not interested in sensible discussion. Instead they resort to Jon Burke-like derogatoriness, and patronising replies to try and shut us up.

Better Streets West Dulwich West Dulwich Labour (((Rezina))) 🌹🐝 Helen Hayes 💙🌹 Rosendale Clean Air and Safe Routes Clean Air Dulwich @cleanairdulwich.bsky.social Improving lives for people inside an LTN is only part of the story. It’s the part of the story LTN advocates obsessively fixate upon, while purposefully ignoring the very obvious consequences. LTN afford privilege & benefit to some at the cost of others. It’s regressive policy.

Data not dogs required.

Little Ninja UK Who gets to decide what was “intended” for our streets hundreds of years ago? And why would that “intention” - revealed to LTN supporters, as if in an apparition - overrule 2025 principles like environmental equity and fairness or the 2025 knowledge of air pollution harms?

Hackney Council is finally starting to publicly acknowledge its LTNs are badly affecting roads outside them. Sadly the 5 year Transport Strategy has virtually no plans to reduce traffic on these sacrificial roads. Does this Cllr’s pamflet 👇hold any credibility or promise?

They waited 5 years before admitting their LTNs increase traffic, pollution and congestion on our community roads. Five years of breathing toxic air for thousands of children who live, travel, learn & play on LTN sacrificial roads = stunted lung growth = irreparable lung damage.

Better Streets West Dulwich You can either support traffic reduction and road safety on all roads, or you can support LTNs. You do the latter.

These guys’ ignorant, insular, and selfish views are becoming more evident by the day.

The Deputy Leader of Lambeth Council has been accused of lying to the High Court in the recent case over the West Dulwich LTN Rezina Chowdhury is now facing calls to resign

A cynical ‘win’. The ‘boundary’ roads outside the LTNs, which are often 800% less safe than side roads see no reduction in injuries. Who cares about their residents? theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…

More plans to increase segregation in what is already one of the most traffic segregated boroughs in London. Hackney has published plans for its Dalston LTN. Will ease traffic on some roads at the expense of others. consultation.hackney.gov.uk/streetscene/da…

Clean Air For All Dulwich Sickening extremist language by the ever arrogant, and ignorant ex Hackney councillor, Jon Burke.

Good advice. Let’s also open all LTNs (Low Traffic Neighbourhoods or ‘liveable streets’) for a fairer distribution of pollution. Nick Ferrari Cristo Andrew Ellson Mums For Lungs Dave Hill John Stewart Little Ninja UK ❤ Streatham Hackney Citizen Mete Coban MBE

15/8/25 11:45am Hackney. Summer holidays, Graham Rd daily congestion from around 11am to 7pm. The reason? LTNs’ road closures & bus gates. Not roadworks, not cars (I can explain how so). Hackney Council offer no solution and seem not to care. Some residents don’t matter. 😢
