Campaigners ask High Court to order council to axe south London low traffic neighbourhood Campaigners will ask the High Court to axe a low traffic neighbourhood in south London that they claim has caused widespread congestion.
Last year, Lambeth’s deputy leader Rezina Chowdhury said the LTN was meant to address “serious concerns” from residents and businesses about the level of traffic that passes through residential streets from the South Circular.
The West Dulwich Action Group will have its application for a judicial review of Lambeth council’s decision to launch a LTN in West Dulwich heard at the Royal Court of Justice on Wednesday.
But the road closures have forced some residents onto the South Circular to reach their homes – and have lengthened queues on the boundary roads of the LTN zone.
But the action group questioned the council’s methodology, and claims that traffic studies have failed to count stationary vehicles – giving a false impression of the apparent success of the LTN.
