Cyclists urge councillors to not scrap divisive ltn
Cyclists urge councillors to"take control" and stand by their active travel commitments after report recommends scrapping of divisive low traffic neighbourhood"as soon as possible"
Now, another report is set to be debated at the next Exeter Highways and Traffic Orders Committee on Monday, June 3, with the recommendation that the trial is “suspended as soon as is practicable”. "It should not require bravery to cycle to school," the campaign, also a registered road safety charity, said in reference to the fact that one of the traffic filters is located next to the Ladysmith School, where a> "Human bollards" step in to enforce road closure after"child knocked off bike" by motorist and cyclist reversed into
"Citizens of Exeter have repeatedly endorsed, through consultations and through the ballot box, your policies for building a city which is safe for our children to move freely and safely, a city which is taking climate breakdown seriously and is reducing road harm. The letter then mentions the achievements of the LTN trial in the nine months so far as overall car journeys being down since pre-trial, with a 30 per cent drop in residential streets, as well as cycling rates going up by 42 per cent. It adds that though boundary road traffic was up by five per cent, it had started decreasing since October.
"We urge you to be true to this commitment, to hold firm to our agreed, consulted-on and electorally-endorsed strategies and do the right thing." In fact, Lucy Haigh, an Independent candidate won the local council elections with an anti-LTN agenda."I was recently elected in Heavitree ward, as local residents felt they were not being heard, and so I ran as an independent to focus on local issues and the biggest one, without a doubt, is the low traffic neighbourhood," she said.
