1 day agoFined drivers to get refunds after LTNs scrapped
Croydon council will refund drivers fined under scrapped Low Traffic Neighbourhood schemes after a High Court ruling deemed them unlawful.
Greenwich Council has denied claims it airbrushed evidence of public opposition in reports concerning a contentious Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) scheme. The South London authority also firmly rejected the notion that the consultation for the West and East Greenwich Neighbourhood Management scheme was biased, undemocratic or secretive. The council implemented the first stage of the LTN scheme in November 2024, trialling the project in an attempt to reduce traffic and improve air quality in two residential areas in Greenwich.
