@LambethLivingSt @LiveableWells The land you talk about- public road & pavement space- does not belong to residents nor are they/we in a qualified position to determine usage. Roads are not exclusively for motorists now, it’s a shared space for all kinds of vehicles.

And roads are definitely not for “play”.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@LambethLivingSt @LiveableWells A road is not a “community space”.

A one or two lane street cannot be compared to a motorway.

But the main point here is- everyone, please don’t let your kids play in the road.

@lambethltnwatch This crossing on Streatham Hill is genuinely terrifying to use as a pedestrian

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@LambethLivingSt @LiveableWells Roads are not a playground.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@British_Airways why do you bother offering the option for hand luggage only if we are then forced to hand in our bags when at the gate? Delayed flight, late to an event and now I have to wait on the other side for my hand-luggage sized bag, delaying me further. Unacceptable.

@CG10192837 If you have a spare 6.5hrs for a round trip by bus, please go ahead. I, however, do not.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

Have to travel to the coast last minute tomorrow morning. I don’t want to drive, I’d rather get the train; but £60 for 2 people is excessive and far more expensive than the cost of petrol. How are we supposed to not choose our car in Streatham when rail fares are exorbitant?

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@ldaviesmusic @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK Haven’t seen any evidence which show what the balance between long & short trips was along the A23. But given it is a main route out of London, it would be fair to assume that a huge portion of traffic is passing through & doesn’t necessarily start or end in Streatham.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@ldaviesmusic @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK And I wouldn’t be able to carry it all back for the 10-15 min walk from the bus stop.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@ldaviesmusic @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK I don’t shop there however, if I was to do a “big shop” there, I wouldn’t walk. Assume Tesco has free parking. A lime bike can’t carry the load even with additional equipment, availability is unreliable & is more ££. 🚌 fare would also cost more than ⛽️& services are unreliable.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@ldaviesmusic @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK I didn’t mention LTNs.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@pugw5sh @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK It seems unfair for on the day travel to be so much more- it’s not as if you’re paying for a seat. On the train today (had to go back again), I heard people talking about how vastly different their fares were for the same destination, just 1 station apart but in the same zone.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@bananatransit @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK The system is so fragmented through privatisation & siloed decision making- the rail companies do what they like, TFL manage their roads & means of transport one way & the councils manage their roads in another. The impact of the lack of joined up thinking & design is painful.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@maurice_1960 @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK There are none. Free parking where I went.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@StreathamBelle @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @SouthernRailUK Yep I’ve had one before however I don’t always travel with someone. The rail card system is so archaic- if I want to travel with my partner, I have to get The Two Together, for me alone, a Network Rail - I think the discount system needs to be simplified.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@MerylORourke @cocobarker1 @heartstreatham @lambethltnwatch @lmjhoney There’s a big difference between misinformation and just facts they do not agree with. They seem to have confused the two and block people who point things out that they don’t like.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@pedrojuk @apchara @CarFreeRoutes @SocEnvJustice A 2-way cycle lane has already been approved from Streatham Hill station down to junction of Christchurch road.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@MerylORourke @lambethltnwatch They’ve blocked me and I don’t think I’ve ever communicated with them. Seems they wish to exist in their echo chamber whilst smearing others.

[Abacus @Ants__Bee]

@LoyTera @Apjabita @GeeDee531182184 @JulianHeather1 If the council genuinely wanted to do what residents wanted,there would’ve been a yes/no vote on the https://t.co/QgPAcIyq9I’s LambethLabour policy & campaigning ultimately had no bearing on the implement’n; it happens you agree with them,therefore you believe you influenced this

@StrWellsLTNEye @MalcolmClark77 @ioisours @NeilSalt2019 @heartstreatham @streathamaction Vehicle counting is completely flawed as a measure for traffic; there is no way to know if a low count is due to
1. Few vehicles
2. Idling/standstill traffic/ vehicles traveling <10kph
As-is, low counts at rush hr should actually be a major concern as is likely due to no.2
