Campaign group Horrendous Hackney Road Closures won an appeal in March for a Judicial Review into HackneyвЂ™s trial schemes on the basis that the council didnвЂ™t consider the impact on main roads, equalities and air pollution, or consult in advance. Speakers at a demonstration in Islington on Saturday 1 May included mayoral candidates David Kurten, Farah London and Laurence Fox and London Assembly candidate Richard Tice of the Reform Party. Mother-of-three Abi Babalola said policymakers вЂњdonвЂ™t care about people I care for.вЂќ Brixton Soup Kitchen CEO Solomon Smith said reaching the families they support has become вЂњten times harderвЂќ. Wandsworth-based air pollution campaigner David Smith described being patronised for taking a different view from fellow activists. Last week, it emerged that ANPR cameras installed to replace physical barriers to monitor Ealing LTNs had raised ВЈ1.47 million to date, and that a council employee had described in an email the most contentious of the boroughвЂ™s trial LTNs as вЂњBig BerthaвЂќ and anticipated local anger.ДЄlso on 24 April, a protest organised by OneLambeth in BrixtonвЂ™s Windrush Square featured speeches from politicians, including Conservative candidate for Mayor Shaun Bailey and community figures who condemned LTNs as divisive. In light of the severity of LondonвЂ™s air pollution, вЂњweвЂ™ve got to act nowвЂќ on active travel schemes, he said. Watching the march, Mark Eccleston of Better Ealing Streets said his local LTN has transformed his familyвЂ™s life, enabling his autistic teenage son to cycle to school for the first time, and that opponents are exaggerating detours that have to be taken due to LTNs. She encouraged marchers to write to Labour councillors telling them to vote out council leader Julian Bell at Ealing LabourвЂ™s AGM on 10 May. She accused Ealing Labour, whose councillors had all seemingly avoided the march, of forgetting вЂњthe mantra of вЂfor the many and not the few'вЂќ. Outside Ealing Town Hall at the end of a residentsвЂ™ protest march against LTNs on 24 April, campaign group One EalingвЂ™s Lorna OвЂ™Driscoll inveighed against вЂњthis dreadful lived experienceвЂќ вЂ“ listing schools on boundary roads, carers, the disabled and local businesses among those impacted. The Harrow Cyclists group say the trials were diluted by changes and then lack of enforcement, but that nevertheless the LTNs had succeeded on their own terms by reducing traffic and increasing walking inside the areas, without increasing queuing at boundary road junctions. Green Assembly candidate Emma Wallace said, вЂњa huge amount has been wasted on something that was never given time for the benefits to be feltвЂќ. Conservative group leader Paul Osborne told national media that вЂњ itвЂ™s been clear from the beginningвЂќ residents were against the schemes. Kenton West Labour councillor Ajay Maru said the schemes have been a вЂњnightmareвЂќ because of the consternation they cause.

A Labour councillor for one of the trial LTN wards said the council had been clear from the start there would be a full consultation at the end, so after the verdict of residents, вЂњit was a simple decisionвЂќ. Council leader Graham Henson said he and his Labour colleagues had listened and in future Harrow would engage in pre-consultation over initiatives to make safer streets and meet the councilвЂ™s 2030 Net Zero pledge. A review had found opposition to the LTN schemes ranging from 65-80 per cent.
