This house in Streatham begs to differ ... or is it proving the point? haha 🎃

Nicely put @henrymance

What I've been thinking ahead of the Budget articulated far better by @ChrisGiles_ . The lowest paid of the 'broad shouldered' will struggle. If only the rhetoric emphasised tax as a collective activity. ft.com/content/78026133-c752… via @ft

Reminded of this recent post in the FT comments

And the impact on buses

This is the council's study of the former Streatham Wells LTN mentioned later in this thread, showing the scheme's impact on boundary roads

Yesss! & since you mention it, also finally hitting their stride down south 🥀

Are these numbers in red (showing increase in traffic from displaced traffic on some roads while Streatham Wells LTN in operation) not significant? NB this LTN is not included in the major LTN studies, though even these acknowledge variation in effects

This might help: the council’s own findings on motor traffic behaviour during the streatham wells ltn. also see how large the area is - so roads that flow without filters mean awful congestion (& ruined buses) for the wider area when scheme in place. *this* ltn did not work.
