Low Traffic Neighbourhoods, or LTNs, reduce traffic in residential streets, and improve access for pedestrians and cyclists with dedicated lanes, wider pavements and planters blocking off vehicle access.

Speed limits of 20mph are designed to reduce the severity of injuries suffered in accidents.

    They won a by-election by opposing the ULEZ expansion, so now he thinks that reversing any policy which might upset car drivers is a general election winning policy.

      I prefer to say they ‘barely clung onto a previously pretty safe seat whilst using a wedge issue as a bludgeon to beat the opposition’.

        It was Boris who introduced the idea of ULEZ and the Tory Party who endorsed it. It was their policy to begin with!
