Have your say on the Streatham Hill Low Traffic Neighbourhood

We’re asking people who live, work and travel in the trial low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) to share their views by doing a survey. This is because we’re considering making the changes permanent after monitoring the LTN and finding that it has been reducing traffic in the area. The consultation is open from 15 November to 19 December 2021.

We’re asking people who live, work and travel in the trial low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) to share their views by doing a survey. This is because we’re considering making the changes permanent after monitoring the LTN and finding that it has been reducing traffic in the area. 

Our monitoring has found that:  

  • The overall volume of motor traffic recorded across all streets within and on the boundaries of the LTN has reduced by 5%, around 6,100 vehicles less a day.
  • Traffic on internal streets has decreased by 54%, it has increased by 13% on external streets (boundary roads) Traffic volumes have decreased by 90% on Hillside Road and by 76% on Hailsham Avenue. It has increased by 7% on Leigham Vale.
  • Cycling has increased by 54% on internal roads, and by 57% on external roads.
  • All the places where we analysed air quality that were classed as sensitive, such as outside schools and care homes, had air quality within legal limits. This includes sensitive sites on boundary roads.
  • Overall air quality in Lambeth is improving, partly due to measures such as the Ultra-Low Emission Zone. We expect to see greater improvements over time.
