The Undersigned Lambeth Residents Using 2011 Localism Act Want Lambeth’s Current Cabinet Dissolved So We Can Rescind all Lambeth LTNs

Comments

I do not want LTN’s on my road! I worry about many things to do with them but I also have 2 teenager daughters who have to walk these quiet streets alone, feeling unsafe!

Laura Yates (Streatham , 2022-12-19)

LTN are treating Lambeth residents as equal. It’s completely unfair to those residents who live on streatham hill, many in social housing, where pollution will rise due to traffic ‘stop and start’ on the streatham high road. You cannot stop people using cars so all the road LTNs will force more traffic to one main road.
From a womens point of view: getting taxis home late or early in morning, taxis will be unable to drop them off at their home, making them vunerable in these quiet streets.
Who benefits? The people living on these roads? The people who knew what traffic was like when purchasing their homes. This is a city and not the countryside.
When you strip it all back, this is clear unfairness and clear demonstration of inequality across Lambeth.

LTNs will negatively severely impact my day to day life in SW16 2TY and will mean I have to drive further and for longer on my current regular journeys where public transport is not available and walking is not an option.

Victoria Brain (Streatham, London, 2022-12-23)

I think it's completely discusting that you won't be allowed to drive on your own road. It's a money making scheme Khan hopefully won't get in again scrap all these silly ideas they are messing up the roads in London

Peter Little (London , 2022-12-23)

I am totally opposed to LTNs, they are divisive and push the problems they seek to address onto others. Until proper alternatives are organised this whole process needs to be stopped and re-planned to support all the residents.

Jo Turner (London, 2022-12-23)

I am against environmental injustice. LTNs are discriminatory, placing additional burden on those with disabilities and/or longterm illnesses and their carers, on those from racially minoritized backgrounds, on the young, the elderly, women and parents.

Katharine Campbell (London, 2022-12-23)

I am anti the LTNs as they do not benefit the community and are purely for revenue generation

Ailsa Wakley (London, 2022-12-23)

#212

I am anti LTNs in Lambeth. The Proposed LTN in Streatham Vale will hugely impact us in SW16 2AQ. Traffic will just be displaced. I fear for my daughter walking in quiet streets and taxi drivers have already said they will not come to us if we are within a LTN making this problem even worse. The congestion of the main arterial roads will become unbearable. This is a pure revenue generating scheme from Lambeth - not wanted by the majority of the residents.

Olivia Salter (London, 2022-12-23)

#213

LTNs have increased pollution and my carbon footprint has tripled. LTNs were bought in to stop covid which obviously didn’t work.
Then they were introduced as part of the climate crises which has not worked either as i now have to spend £100per week more on fuel, spend an extra 90minutes a day sitting in traffic pumping out CO2. My van now does 12pm due to the LTNs down from over 20mpg.
My front entrance is now 1.9miles away from my back entrance. Madness

Lloyd Richards (London, 2022-12-24)

Blocking roads does not serve residents best interests. Use number recognition technology to limit access to residents and accredited services/suppliers. That will have the effect you seek without antagonising the local population.

Simon Sprackling (London, 2022-12-25)

Do not want/agree with any LTNs due to causing more pollution for those who use or live on main roads.

Hetty Banks (London, 2022-12-28)

All the LTNs are doing is creating more congestion/ making longer journeys and fining the working class people for doing their jobs and trying to live a normal life

Sharon Hall (London, 2022-12-29)

#232

There are proposed LTNs happening directly only street and I have no idea how I will be able to get to and from my house without adding over 20 minutes to my route in any direction when there is full traffic. It is not fair and insane to close a street, especially to the people who LIVE on the street!.

Angela Rahe-Blomfield (London, 2022-12-29)

I’m signing this petition because as a local resident the LTN will be more detrimental than beneficial to the area.

They have decided to close my road and I have not been consulted

Because I am a tax paying, car tax paying citizen and I want the right to drive down the road I live in.

Lucie Hackman (London sw2 5bw , 2023-01-03)

#245

Existing LTNs have already doubled not reduced the mileage for my regular commitments ( there is no relevant public transport and at 80 I cannot cycle or walk. Now I learn that when our LTN begins we may be fined if we leave from the wrong exit or at the wrong time. This is insane and pure financial exploitation. I see no evidence that LTNs reduce Pollution or mileage

Virginia Waterhouse (WEST NORWOOD, 2023-01-04)

#246

Because it’s unlawful to charge local residents to park in the streets they cannot access due to LTNs
These LTNs do not help with pollution as they only drive (pardon the pun) onto the main A23 which is the only option from Streatham to Brixton.
I walk everyday from Brixton Hill to the tube along the most polluted road in London the increase in traffic in ten fold due to these LTNs

Catherine Murphy Birchall (London , 2023-01-04)

#250

We have enough traffic coming past as it is.

Martin Cook (London, 2023-01-06)

#254

I am signing this petition as I do see/understand why local residents have to be penalised with such a heavy hand and unconsidered approach. If there are concerns over the volumes of traffic why could the entrance to branksome road not be turned into a residents only junction. The local council for Dulwich has done this and it seems to have had the desired effect. I don’t understand why you would want to force more local traffic down into the centre of Brixton which is already heavily congested.

Matthew Cosserat (London, 2023-01-08)

#255

I’m a Lambeth resident and I object to LTNs. They divert, rather than reduce, traffic, increase rather than reduce pollution, and impede ordinary people from getting on with their everyday lives. They’re also imposed by the council rather than being something local residents are asking for.

Michael Nott (London, 2023-01-08)

LTNs makes my life extremely difficult. I suffer from mental health issues therefore need to drive.

My childrens’s school is on leigham court road and Lambeth doesn’t care about their health and lungs as long as they make more money and tick boxes to ‘pretend’ they are doing something about pollution. Mark my words I will not be voting for anyone who thinks LTNs are a good idea!!!

Very restricting for residents and helping neighbours. It also increases pollution and travel

Jolanta Maria (London, 2023-02-03)

#263

The entire scheme has not been coherently thought though!
It does not serve the majority of residents and has destroyed buinesses and had implications on the quality of life for a large proportion of residents.
It has been a scheme which has not acually improved air quality , merely re distributed emmissions to the boundry roads that everyone uses!
Policy is to penalise vehical uses in order to make them pay more for
extra distances travelled
( fuel costs costs) and reduction of parking spaces and residents parking costs, in order that frustrated drivers will give up there cars! Essenual vehicle users are not considered at all. ( only higher income families can afford taxi's and home deliveries, also NOT EVERYONE CAN CYCLE OR WALK LONG DISTANCES!)
IT HAS BEEN THE MAIN CONCERN OF THIS COUNCIL TO ACCUMULATE AS MUCH REVENUE FROM VEHICLE OWNERS AS POSSIBLE TO SUPLIMENT THE MISS MANAGED BUDGET,
At the same time enormous amounts of money paid to private contractors to build ' street furniture and planters which are then not maintained.£283, 000 , for just one example, whilst roads and pavements elsewhere are left in an often dangerous state of repair!
Emerancy vehicle access is compromised by LTN's
Streets, almost empty of passing traffic dangerous to walk along at night.
Finally the Council are totally dishonest with information and totally disregard any valid opposition. Not responding or dismissing any legitimate comments or complaints. This is proven by direct intervention by the Ombusman re Council failed Housing policy !

Susan James (London, 2023-08-31)

Lambeth are taking advantage of their residents and are not listening to the majority.

We need freedom of movement and they're stopping us to go about our daily routines.

Pollution outside nurseries and schools will skyrocket and they're falsifying data.

Claudia Sarpong (London , 2023-08-31)

#265

The LTNs increase congestion and pollution. They are unworkable and only really serve to benefit the council in terms of revenue generation. Not fit for purpose. Especially the Estreham Road one which blocks access from the station and allows cars to speed one way down the road without worry of oncoming traffic.

Mark Jones (London, 2023-09-03)

#268

I do not want any LTNs. They are unwanted by the majority of the LOCAL residents.
I’m all for encouraging people not to use their cars so much but causing congestion on major thoroughfares by imposing LTNs is not the way to do this.

Joanna Marson (London, 2023-10-10)

#269

I’m signing because I live in Lambeth (SW16 2SB) and am very much against the LTN in Streatham Wells (and anywhere else!), which will vastly increase traffic on my road (Leigham Court Road), make necessary car journeys (to see relations, friends, GP, do weekly shopping, etc) longer, waste more petrol, create more pollution (especially on the main arteries like my road). This has not been thought through. It’s also pure hypocrisy: there are several schools (not to mention old people’s homes) on Leigham Court Road - but the LTN is not caring about what children at those schools breathe in every day, is it?

Priscilla Seidler (London, 2023-10-11)

#270

The council isn't listening to votes from residence. People are being force out of their homes with such drastic and costly measure that residence will also be paying for financially and with a lots more stress it will cause to their daily routine.
Residents cannot relax in their communities, quite the opposite. They feel that the council has no interest in they're quality of life at all.

Ltns do not provide less traffic less pollution and better safety for all. As someone who lives on a newly designated boundary road all these factors will increase. Lambeth does not seem to care at all about how these residents will be affected despite many attempts to ask them to reconsider. They have divided communities for no proven benefits.

Emma Elliott (London, 2023-10-11)

#275

I have lived in 2 of Lambeth’s LTNs. They have actually increased my driving distances and time in the car and made my road less safe for my teenage daughters. Residents have not been consulted or heard.

I am directly affected by LTN in Streatham wells and this is not only causing my anxiety as a mother of 4 who has to travel to work after school drop off but will affect every aspect of my day to day. I am against Streatham wells LTN which is going to not only cause chaos on leigham court road but will increase pollution on a road that has multiple schools and children.

Samantha Chase (London , 2023-10-15)

#300

I think the LTN's have been implemented without proper local consultation - i.e there was no option to reject the proposed LTN's only options to alter designs.
I believe they are ill thought through, affect local businesses, and disproportionately affect low income families with redirected traffic increasing in areas where they live. As a transport solution, they are being enforced at a time when local train frequencies have been reduced, and local bus routes now slower due to increased traffic flow on arterial roads - so overal, worse local transport options than previously - unless you are fit enough to rode a bike in the rain up a steep hill.

Brian Storey (London, 2023-10-16)

I would like all ltns in Lambeth removed. The public roads are owned by the public. Lambeth council's duty is to maintain the roads. Ltns have made life a living hell for most of the residents in Lambeth, whose objections have been totally ignored by Lambeth council/MP's. Lambeth council have made billions from LTN's, despite this the roads are in still in a bad state. Businesses have suffered, people with disabilities/carers have suffered. I only have one dangerous slip road I can use to access the road I live on, the 5 other roads that previously had access and were safe to use are now ltns. The list goes on. Give the community back their roads

Juliette Ryder (London, 2023-10-16)

#305

Usually I would drive to breakfast club at school and drop my 4 and 6 year old off and head straight to work to arrive for 8am. I am a class teacher myself so starting work any later isn’t an option for me.

Having this restrictions For me will mean my children who are both still very young will have to leave at 7.15am to walk to school and then walk back at after 6pm.

My children are drained from the long hours at breakfast club/school/ after school club already and this will have an huge impact on us as a family.

Not only that but I am concerned about the position of my job and not being able to make it on-time to work for 8am if I have to run back to my car and then drive to croydon. This could mean I am consistently late and unable to continue my role as a reception teacher at a school that I love.



I then will have to run back home to get my car and drive to Croydon for 8am. I can not start any later as I am a teacher too. After school my 4 year old and 6 year old are pretty drained from the long day.

Food shopping
Currently I shop in Aldi. I live on Madeira road, in order for me to get to Aldi I will now have to drive along the common and back round on the hire road instead of driving on stanthrope road.

On my way home, I can not turn left towards streatham common, I can only turn right, I will have to drive alone the high road, up to Leigham court road, back down by the common and then back onto valley road in order for me to get home with food.

This contradicts the aim for people to drive less as I will have to drive up to streatham hill back down to the common causing higher levels of pollution and fuel consumption.

As a parent of a child who has serve asthma and has had over ten admissions to hospital of course I would want pollution levels to be improve however this will not be the resolution with the restrictions as a resident in the area.

In 2021 I had no option but to change my car due to the LEZ, I was struggling financially as it was and I couldn’t get a loan to get a different car and I was accepted for finance so I had no other choice but to take it out as a simple journey to work involved getting myself and my young children to nursery by the earliest possible time. The cost of having a this car is £300, insurance was £500 for a year. I always wanted to keep my outgoings low however I had no choice as I was no longer able to drive to my employment at the time. Now in 2023, my insurance is over 1000 a year and I have not had an accident.

The aim of the LEZ was help pollution in which I have changed my car yet It will be difficult to drive it to work and do weekly food shops.

For residents who do not work from home and have children who work long hours like myself will be extremely challenging and draining.

I would really hope you can consider the above points raised and come to a reasonable decision where by residents are expect or an appropriate time frame.


I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Many thanks

The LTN situation is a nightmare. And Lambeth Council's consultation on Streatham Wells has been pitiful. We have engaged and have highlighted the very real social and life consequences of the plans for the community. The council has failed to address these concerns. Councillors have shown themselves to be ill-equipped to represent us.

I do not believe the introduction of ltn’s is beneficial for any of the residents, just restriction of freedom for

Gloria Santini (London, 2023-10-19)

#315

LTNs aren’t doing what they’re claimed to be doing. They increased journey times, they increase emissions and lower air quality because longer, slower circuitous journeys have to be made, because of all the blockades on the road, it results in the average speed decreasing, and the use of lower gears, which inevitably increases fuel consumption, which increases emissions. It also not only slows down private vehicles, but it also slows down buses, which are either badly delayed, or so badly delayed that they are cancelled causing missed appointments to people who require medical treatment in hospital or at the GP surgery. The uptake of bicycles has not increased since the introduction, peak cycling has already been achieved, there are a number of people with mobility issues necessarily elderly and they require a car to get around for work, shopping, and to see friends and relations. LTNs also restrict visits by friends, family and loved ones which makes the LTN the most antisocial piece of social engineering ever imposed on Londoners.

LTNs force people to make longer local journeys and increase pollution on the roads they are forced onto. They are not green. They are also ableist and will cause issues for deliveries, repairs and for the emergency services.

I am a lambeth resident, mother of four with my own business. These LTNs are going to add hours to my daily routine, hours which I don’t have. Why haven’t the council taken advice from other implemented schemes? I’m all for stopping ‘rat-runs’ but not for stopping residents going about their daily business. ANPR is the only workable option which would stop the rat running but wouldn’t penalise residents in their own neighbourhoods.

Christina Upjohn (London, 2023-10-27)

#381

The council are more concerned about taking more from residents than they are about helping residents.

We pay road tax and then get banned from using half the roads in Lambeth. This causes more pollution for main high streets as all the traffic is directed to the main Streets and makes the empty back roads a target for crime.

I’m deeply affected by these changes and believe they are not necessary. The road closures are poorly designed as a few weeks ago there was road works which closed a proposed access road in the scheme. This on top of the new scheme meant is took almost 1 hours to drive less than 250 yards!
