Parodying was exactly what I was going for, being tired of all the attacks on OneDulwich, left, right and centre. I don't agree with the statement that both groups use the same tactics. And certainly the overall goal is different. OneDulwich never said the LTN is bad overall, only that it is not a suitable solution for Dulwich. Clean Air Dulwich never mentioned anyone living on a main or boundary road affected by LTN. I live on a busy road which has become very busy after LTN introduction. I have lost a lot. People on Calton Av were living on a quiet road which became very quiet after LTN introduction. They have lost nothing. Shifting dirt, pollution and noise from A to B is damaging to those living on the busy roads and does nothing for environment as the amount of dirt and pollution remains the same. There is no reliable data which would confirm LTN does what it claims – essays produced by Anna Goodman & Co do not count since she is a cyclist and belongs to LCC. It is like asking vegetarians if they like fruit and vegetables. If the LTN did what it claims want to do / has done, then every council in London and all cities and towns in UK would implement it. In a meantime, Southwark Council refused to participate in the government review of LTN – why, if they are so proud of it and so confident it does work? Why don’t they produce the data and try to encourage others to take it also?

@malumbu @Earl Aelfheah @outoffocus - @Admin@quickmove perhaps outoffocus is not a real person - @march46 can you help identifying the culprits? How do I contact @cleanairdulwich? What is / are the email address / es? Can I please have the names of people involved in @cleanairdulwich? Is it a private organisation? If so, who is behind it? Is it an organisation connected to @Southwark Council - if so, can we please have more information?

Can someone please explain who "Clean Air Dulwich" are?

One Dulwich Campaign Update | 3 May Parliament debates LTNs – please fill in the questionnaire by 6 May Parliament will debate two petitions – “Carry out an independent review into Low Traffic Neighbourhoods” and “Exempt Blue Badge drivers from Low Traffic Neighbourhoods” – at 4.30 pm on Monday 20 May in the Grand Committee Room above Westminster Hall. Please fill in this short questionnaire about your experience of the Dulwich LTNs, as your comments will help to inform the debate. The deadline for this is very soon – 10am on Monday 6 May. We have written to our MP Helen Hayes, pointing out that her constituents represent the second highest number of those who requested both petitions, and asking her to take part in the debate in order to represent the two-thirds majority of people living and working in Dulwich who asked for the Dulwich LTNs to be reconsidered. Because these petitions are directed at Parliament, not Southwark Council, we hope that Helen Hayes will speak up for her constituents on this occasion. You might want to encourage her to take part by emailing her at [email protected]. We have also reminded her that a group of Blue Badge holders have petitioned the Leader of Southwark Council to be allowed through the Dulwich Village junction because of the daily difficulties, distress and – in some cases – severe pain suffered by disabled and other vulnerable car-dependent constituents who are now forced to take long and circuitous detours in stop-start traffic along boundary roads. You can watch the debate – and, we hope, our MP representing our interests – on Parliament tv, or you can attend in person. Thank you for your support. The One Dulwich Team SUPPORT ONE DULWICH

LTN means discriminating against those worst off - traffic, noise and air pollution is being pushed off to the main roads where most vulnerable live on

LTN is scam and has to go 🙂

@Earl Aelfheah do you find living on a busy and polluted road funny? Why? I simply can't afford moving away - is this amusing and if so, why?

LTN is s**t. I live on LL and the traffic, noise and air pollution has never been worst since this ridiculous vanity project was introduced. It has to go - and it will.

One Dulwich Campaign Update | 23 Mar New government guidance on LTNs As a result of the government’s research report on Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (Southwark refused to take part), the Department for Transport has introduced new statutory guidance for councils. The guidance says that local authorities should not impose LTNs in the face of strong local opposition (two-thirds of those living and working in Dulwich who responded to the 2020 public consultation were against them). Where they are introduced, councils should regularly review LTNs, ensuring they keep meeting their objectives, aren’t adversely affecting other areas, and are locally supported. The Dulwich LTNs fail on all these points. The guidance also says that where the community is not supportive, authorities should introduce changes to address community concerns or remove the scheme. Please join us in writing to • Leader of the Council [email protected] • Head of Highways [email protected] • Council cabinet member for Climate Change, Streets and Clean Air [email protected] • Transport Secretary [email protected] to say that, because of continued opposition by local residents and businesses, increased traffic and worse air quality on boundary roads, and discrimination against those with disabilities, Southwark Council should now review the Dulwich LTNs and either modify or remove them. Dulwich Village junction redesign approved Cllr James McAsh has approved the proposed redesign of the junction, even though two-thirds of those who responded are critical or not in favour. The new design blocks direct access to Calton Avenue from Dulwich Village for emergency vehicles – they must now take the longer route via Court Lane. This change will inevitably lead to delays for ambulances. We are writing to the London Ambulance Service to raise our concerns. Thank you for your support. The One Dulwich Team

Yeah, 'thank gods it comes' more like it lol! 🙂

yep ad nauseam: Repasting here: what a con! Is anyone really surprised? No money for sweeping pavements and social care and yet thousands of pounds wasted on ltn, ltn consultations, ltn road closures, ltn so-called 'planters' upkeep, ltn dulwich village junction consultations and re-consultations and re -re-consultations and re -re-re consultations and so on! Am not sure how much the councils are in finanicial trouble and how much this is due to completemismanagement and money wasted on crap like ltn!

One Dulwich Campaign Update | 12 Jan It’s been nearly four years since Southwark Council announced the Dulwich LTNs, and since One Dulwich was founded. Since then, the Council has ignored the results of every consultation, the impact of traffic restrictions on businesses and people living on boundary roads, and the difficulties that disabled and other vulnerable residents have been forced to endure. We’re not the only ones. The most recent LTN to hit the headlines is in Streatham, where residents are suffering the same consequences as us – displaced traffic, delayed buses, wrecked businesses and increased pollution outside schools on boundary roads. More information here, and see the Telegraph report here. Meanwhile, please help us keep up the pressure on Southwark Council by taking part, if you haven’t already, in the consultation on the redesign of the Dulwich Village junction (Phase 3). We recommend filling in the survey but letting the Council know what you think of their failure to respond to feedback from the local community in the last consultation by ignoring Question 6 and answering “1 (not at all)” to questions 7 – 12. And do please use the comment boxes to remind them that the community rejected the closure of the junction in the original consultation. The deadline is 17 January 2024. With best wishes to all our supporters (and a big welcome to those who have recently signed up). The One Dulwich Team

Dulwich Village junction has to be reopened. Hundred of thousands of pounds waisted on the vanity project called ltn and yet the pavements near Wood Vale have not been cleared once this Autumn. No surprise the councills are going bankrupt.

keep dreaming

I agee with One Dulwich - they represent my views and concerns. I don't drive, don't own a car - never have - and I walk a lot. I live on a main road where the traffic has been very much worst since the so called ltn was introduced: more traffic, more noise and more air pollution. Neither southwark council nor cycling groups care.

I admire your patience Rockets... 🙂

Just walking from Forest Hill station, along South Circular / LL: traffic stationary and not moving at all - the usual and so much worst since so-called ltn was introduced in Dulwich. I wonder what cllr leeming have to say - you live on a main road so you die ten years earlier because of air pollution? How is southwark council proposing to address this?

Mostly naive. They are way too polite also.

This is too easy: out of touch with real world? dangerous hardline ideologue? pandering to the rich of East Dulwich? manipulating data? bulling TfL staff? my way or the highway? if you live on South Circular you can die from air pollution for all I care? Ladies & gents, southwark LABOUR council very own comrade Leeming!!

Keep up the fight prople - ltn must go

Keep up the fight people - ltn must go

Yep - the ends justify the means. What a waste of money the ltn is: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-66524319.amp
