Upcoming changes
A summary of upcoming improvements we intend to make in response to community feedback whilst working within the constraints of the ongoing lockdown
Supporting measures
Exemptions
- A full review of the LTN exemption policy is currently ongoing.
Improved Communication:
- We will release a short film explaining the monitoring strategy and next steps with engagement
Behaviour Change programme
- We will enhance our programme of behaviour change activities and arrange targeted Dr Bikes, bike markets, bike training and other initiatives in the LTN
Equalities
- We will collect additional equalities data to enhance and improve the quality of the data in our Equalities Impact Assessments
- We will run targeted engagement and community street audits aimed at understanding specific barriers for protected groups and at identifying potential improvements to the local streetscape
- We will work specifically with disabled residents and representatives of disability action groups to understand potential improvements we can make.
- We will improve the accessibility and inclusivity of the way information is shared and presented
- We will work with local community organisations to deliver community design programmes that allow local people to redesign existing spaces. Specific focus will be on engaging younger people under 25y/o, people from BAME backgrounds, and older people who are typically under‐ represented in these activities.
