Rebuilding a greener Arlen Hill: Low traffic neighbourhoods

Closes 22 Sep 2027

Opened 24 Oct 2022

Overview

This is an example activity for demonstration purposes only. This site is operated by Delib Ltd and submitted responses will be discarded.

Neighbourhood traffic is one of the largest contributors to air pollution; it is estimated that approximately 45% of traffic within neighbourhood areas passes without stopping. We want to transform Arlen Hill into a healthier and safer place to live by reducing the amount of through traffic passing through our neighbourhoods. Not only will this help to reduce air pollution, but it will also provide much quieter space in the streets for everyone to enjoy. 

This is why we have introduced four low traffic neighbourhoods in Arlen Hill, implemented on an experimental traffic order for 14 months, which commenced on 1st August 2022. We are interested in hearing about what residents and passers through think about the low traffic neighbourhoods, and offer suggestions on where you would like to see new bus gates, traffic filters and protected cycle lanes. We welcome views from everyone about what you like about the low traffic neighbourhoods and what aspects you would like to change in order to decide whether or not we should make these measures permanent.
