Fantastic news to end the week - @hackneycouncil are making the Hackney Downs LTN permanent. It’s been transformational for the area. Now we can build on the achievement, with new public spaces where there used to be traffic
NEW: Hackney Downs LTN will be permanent - with changes.
Following feedback from residents, there will be some important changes.
Together, we will rebuild a greener Hackney with cleaner air, healthier lives & better neighbourhoods 👊🏼✌🏾

Plans are out for some improvements to Northwold Rd and @hackneydownsltn. At @hackney_cycling we spent a lot of effort mapping where cycle #Gateways were needed. One of the locations is right here. But the proposals ignore it. Can we discuss please? @metecoban92 @carowoodley

So for whatever it's worth, please take a few minutes to fill in the consultation today, and ask for action to fix this problem that we've known about for ages. Tell the council not to waste any more money finding out something we already know. Thank you

⚠️Consultation on changes to the Hackney Downs LTN closes today. While it's good to see changes being implemented, the most needed one is – inexplicably – nowhere to be seen in the consultation, so you'll need to write it in. Read on… 1/n 🧵consultation.hackney.gov.uk/…

Removing through-traffic doesn’t prevent people from accessing places by car. But it encourages high rates of walking and cycling, and more considerate driving. @hackneydownsltn

Who wants a low traffic Stamford Hill West? Traffic calming, filters, more cycle lanes & hangers, enforced School Streets. Who’s in? DM us to help us get the campaign started #lowtraffichackney #stamfordhillwest #LTN
Hackney Downs LTN retweeted
Hi @hackneycouncil and @alastairis I fail to understand why there is no enforcement of the Benthal Road LTN -- I see cars going through the filter constantly and even during school street hours. This morning in just a few minutes 4 vehicles went through just after 09:00.
Hackney Downs LTN retweeted
For main roads which ‘don’t have enough space’ for both a bus lane and a bike lane, the trick is to remove the car lane
Hackney Downs LTN retweeted
Failure to fix Stean Street bollards rewards least law abiding, most entitled and most dangerous drivers. This is undermining the whole LTN & putting people at risk. Hundreds of cars a day going through. Please put us back and this time lock us down! @hackneycouncil @metecoban92
