‘It’s not a question of reducing traffic on residential roads…’

• STATISTICS aside, what campaigners against LTN, low traffic neighbourhoods, fail to acknowledge is it isn’t a zero-sum game.

It’s not a question of reducing traffic on residential roads and necessarily moving it onto bigger roads.

The whole point of such measures is gradually, over time, to decrease the overall volume of motorised traffic in favour of more sustainable ways of getting around.

These are future-thinking policies aiming for a better environment for everyone.
