I received a letter from the Council dated 19 August 2020 on the proposed Low traffic neighbourhood along Dover House Road and other roads commencing on 31 August 2020 and I believe for 24 hours seven days a week. It is the same scheme that the Dover House Road Residents Association had put forward, for closure during rush hours, before but stopped last year until a full traffic management survey was carried out in the whole area. I have not had. or heard of, the results of this survey at all. The letter indicates "that the proposed measures are in response to Government guidance and Transport for London's call for Local Authorities to make temporary and immediate measures to reallocate road space to people walking and cycling, both to encourage active travel and to enable social distancing." According to the letter, it is an Experimental Traffic Order and supposedly there is no requirement for formal consultation in advance of introducing the temporary measure but there is a statutory 6-month period following implementation whereby anyone may comment n writing an all comments must be considered. |
