What are the specific measures onedulwich is proposing first mate? Do you have any details? Which roads? How would the traffic physically be restricted at peak times? first mate Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Starting somewhere is convincing schools and > parents who drive their children to and from > school to start walking, cycling and using public > transport, has there been much in the way of > active campaigning within schools and between > parent groups? > > Through traffic is a slightly different matter as, > after all, we have to weigh the impact on the > economy, not to mention vulnerable groups, if we > shut down road after road.

Removing 7000 traffic movements a day would be great! Thanks for the info slarti b - I've looked at the website but struggling to find the detailed alternative plan. Are you proposing the same permeable filters for Area A & C as OHS proposed, so Melbourne Grove / Turney & Burbage? How physically would you ban traffic in Area B at certain times only? Are you proposing all the same roads as were mentioned in OHS, Eynella, Townley Rd, Dulwich Village etc....? thanks

Thanks Abe_ do you know physically how they would ban traffic? On which roads? At what times? thanks

It's great to see support for the aims of Healthy Streets from the onedulwich group. I'm interested to know specifically how the group proposes to achieve the stated aims of 'reducing traffic volumes, improving air quality and making cycling and walking easier and safer'?
