Railton LTN

A place to share stories about how the new Low Traffic Neighbourhood is getting those who don’t need to drive, out of their cars.

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

Why low traffic neighbourhoods = joy

[Le Bête de Londres. @BastieVelo]

*Sound On*!! @RailtonLTN doing what it does best - echoing joyful noises made by kids on their way home from school for the weekend. #cycling #activetravel #LTN #lovemyLTN

@richardwillq @lambeth_council @hernehillforum do you know why there is no support? What supplier did they use for this one?

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@carlafrancome @francesca_kms Great news!

[Carla Francome @carlafrancome]

I’m so proud of my dear friend and the amazing campaigner @francesca_kms for being made a Haringey Hero 🏆🏆

There wasn’t enough room for everyone at the ceremony but Francesca’s award is just as valid.

I nominated her because of her great campaigning work on here, and … 1/4

[Rosendale Cycle Lane @lane_cycle]

I'm delighted I'm getting these improvements in a place where my wands used to go missing regularly.

Lots of other improvements going in too.

Just a snapshot.

No spades in the ground sorting bus priority on the high road.

How is the plan to reduce car use and journeys going?

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@richardwillq @hernehillforum You can report that to Metropolitan police. Completely illegal. Not ok.

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

The new habit of people pavement parking outside @tesconews in Herne Hill on Milkwood road is not a good one!
@hernehillforum can we get a @WorldBollard?

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@ggatlarge @CommunityFibre @lambeth_council Wow @CommunityFibre we were thinking of moving to you but this puts me off! not cool.

[Giles Gibson @ggatlarge]

@CommunityFibre Looks like your engineers are not really community minded at all. There is ample free parking within a few metres but no, easier to block the pavement for everyone.

[Rory McCarron @CyclingLawLDN]

Every single day, multiple times. The biggest cause of delays to buses here in @Royal_Greenwich Herbert Road is illegally parked vehicles blocking the road. @thameswater I hope they enjoyed their bacon sandwich from the cafe at the expense of others being delayed for work….

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@horrifiedofhh Yep

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

Please don't do this!

[Dulwich Roads is also on Bluesky @DulwichRoads]

We're told the driver of HX15TYA, parks every single day on the Double Yellows to drop @dulwichprep. Dangerously blocking the bridge on Huntslip Rd where children have been hit by cars on the wrong side of the road.

If parents won't listen, more parking enforcement is needed.

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@hernehillforum Yes good idea. But it is the other side. It is the entrance opposite Herne Hill train station entrance.

[Herne Hill Forum @hernehillforum]

Pavement parking in London is illegal.

And yes, this is an increasing problem.

Could outside Tesco be a good place to reposition the bus stop currently outside the South London Dance School?

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@HealthyStsSE17 @lb_southwark Thanks!

[Bob From Accounts 🚲 @BobFromAccounts]

Thank God @CouncillorSuzie is here to save Londoners from this kind of 
dystopian urban hellscape so we can all enjoy the right to live on a polluted, traffic-filled street with the ability to drive 5 minutes to the shop. No Londoner should have access to nice things #LTN

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

Next time I am taking a photo!

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@cocobarker1 @LiveableWells @willnorman @RezinaChowdhury @clairekholland A little bit rubbish for everyone and no way for people to cycle or walk safely... Right!

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@Adespoto3 @carlafrancome Michael is too much of a gentleman to exhibit such selfish behaviour!

[Railton LTN @RailtonLTN]

@carlafrancome Your Dad is a handsome man!
