Fifteen community groups have sent a letter to the transport secretary arguing that LTN schemes often lack local backing, advocating for a regulatory framework to ensure community support.
The experience of local authorities imposing LTNs without genuine public support, despite consultations showing substantial opposition, has led to an erosion of trust in local governance.
Campaigners from multiple London areas have united to call for regulations that protect vulnerable groups and ensure traffic schemes are supported by the community.
Opponents argue that there is insufficient evidence linking LTNs to improved public health and claim residents face worsened congestion and longer bus journeys.
