A lot of the numbers used to jsutify the conlcusino don't even make sense.


"Responses (569 in total) from 33 streets around Melbourne Grove were analysed to determine if there was

enough support from respondents here.


...


Officers have analysed the difference in responses north and south of East Dulwich Grove for the Melbourne

Grove area. The results show that we received the majority of responses from the south (50) with 35 from the

north. "

I hadn't picked that up until you posted that - on what basis does charging diesel drivers more for the paid parking have anything to do with parking pressure? Surely that's well out of remit? I don't drive a diesel so have no skin in that game but it seems to conflate two totally different issues.

    • Okay Earl, of those 'consulted' how many voices were in favour of the junction and how many against? Were there more responses in favour or more against? This local junction change is being driven by Southwark Labour Councillors- not as you assert by Central Govt. Also, if consultations are so irrelevant as indicators of meaningful local support in the way you seem to imply, why do organisations like Southwark Cyclists constantly ask their members to respond to all and any consultation on LTN's and CPZ's?  
    • You could apply the same argument to any kind of penalty as an effective deterrent.  Better than doing nothing. 
    • Check the link I provided above. It’s gives a very full account of where the push for LTNs came from, (in brief, central government). The consultation did not show that the majority of local residents were against the LTN. Not for the first time, you’ve confused a ‘consultation’ with a ‘referendum’. The outcome of local elections (which many opposed to LTNs excitedly promoted as a referendum on the scheme), suggested they are actually quite popular. All the polling on LTNs generally, also shows majority support across London.
    • Rockets said: "Perhaps you should be asking who is lobbying the council to close the junction or parts of it or why the council is happy to waste so much of our money on it - who are they representing as even their own consultation demonstrated they did not have support from the local community for the measures? The results showed the majority of local residents were against the measure...but they are going ahead with them anyway" This.
