@jonburkeUK @MikejpWalsh Ltns can certainly make traffic worse on streets where traffic is displaced too.

@metecoban92 So are you confirming LTNs have been “installed” - ie the evaluation over whether they should be introduced is over? How is the evaluation objective if you cite the installation of LTNs as an achievment? What about pollution for those who live on streets with displaced traffic?

@metecoban92 @hackneycouncil So why are you increasing pollution for those of us negatively affected by LTNs. Are you saying residents like me do not have increased pollution?

@benjyminty @metecoban92 They are unfair by forcing people who live on non-ltn streets to accept higher traffic. That benefits the mire well off who live on quieter streets. The case that LTNs deter traffic on busier roads is far from proven

@benjyminty @metecoban92 Because there was an increase when first introduced. I hope ulez brings it down. I would also welcome bike lanes. LTNs are just unfair

@benjyminty @metecoban92 There are much fairer, better ways to bring traffic down

@benjyminty @metecoban92 I assume you do not live on a street like mine then. LTN supporters seem to gaslight what I see out my door.

@jonburkeUK @tsimjanovic The majority live on quieter streets - this is about the treatment of the minority who will suffer in health etc. But even those who live on quieter streets might not like traffic jams nearby

@metecoban92 @hackneycouncil How can we have confidence that there will be an objective evaluation of LTN’s impact when you keep promoting such a one sided view of them?

@metecoban92 @mayorofhackney @hackneycouncil @HackneyLabour Do you realise how such tweets are felt by residents on roads Cricketfield Rd which see displacement traffic?

@mayorofhackney @ZENCityfringe Ulez will be very good for Hackney - much fairer than LTNs. The local traffic has been rising in recent weeks

@jonburkeUK So the people who live on residential streets with increased traffic will just have to suffer then?

@hackneycouncil No stats for Cricketfield Rd? And lockdown must be the main driver of any fall in traffic

@metecoban92 Can you assure people like me onroads where displaced traffic will go to will not be adversely affected? Why not congestion charging instead?

Is Hackney Council and @PhilipGlanville extending because it did not get the results it wanted? Everything in this statement suggests it has already decided in favour of LTNs. How many positive and negative responses in this “consultation”
