@clairekholland Lambeth Council is not tackling the Climate Crisis. Just 3% of Lambeth pollution is from (ulez compliant) cars, yet so much effort & noise around compulsory LTN vip zones. *The other 97% of causes ignored*. Your middle class pandering is ruinous, unenvironmental & hypocritical.

@lambeth_council @TfL Listen to ALL of yr constituents, not just a few streets. Blame the A23 cycle-lane works if u like, to save face. Traffic displacent schemes are unjust & harmful. Lambeth is a runaway train, mistaking green paint for Climate Action. A dreadful 5 months u put #streatham through.

One of obvious falsehoods of #LTN traffic displacement schemes, is the claim that life is made better & safer for 🚲. Inside the #streatham VIP zone, yes. Elsewhere, the *intensification* of traffic on overwhelmed boundary & outer rds, actively increases hazards for cyclists 🚲💥

No chance of @lambeth_council joining-the-dots🤔. Not sure if they view loss of local biz as necessary collateral #ltn damage, or just don't notice/care at all? Many #Streatham Hill biz not yet aware re cycle lane works coming @instreatham @streathamaction

1st visit in years, & it's transformed! 😲 Shabby parklets & dead as a dodo at lunch☀️. Spoke to local biz owner of 20 yrs, says they, & #Brixton Wholefoods (a 40yr institution) pretty much the only survivors on Atlantic since @lambeth_council 's forced #LTN . Ruinous faux utopias.

This comment is an insult. @RezinaChowdhury @clairekholland @lambeth_council know full well the consequences of dumping #Streatham wells VIP #ltn traffic onto already busy 'sacrificial' roads. (& by not *measuring* the full impact, can deny it/ not be legally liable). Disgraceful

@LambethLivingSt Not picking a fight 🙏🏽 but those on residential main roads bordering LTNs do not benefit. Traffic displaced from side road closures increases #airpollution for main road communities already at risk. Mitigation for main roads should be part of any #LowTrafficNeighbourhood scheme.

@LiveableWells @RezinaChowdhury @lambeth_council @clairekholland Lambeth's decision to place seating (& bike stands) *at junctions* across Streatham, is baffling. The 315 has done this route pre LTN without issue in traffic - this obstruction caused a very predictable accident. You keep repeating basic safety infrastructure - what was removed?

Her detour options, to get to her friend: 1. join SCN/SHR traffic, cross A23 at Sunnyhill. Or do a u turn across 2/3 lanes at Hopton Rd. Or 2. take longer LCR route (temp lights/congestion again) & approach on busy SHR. Is this really the plan @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury ?
