Residents protest against new Low Traffic Neighbourhood trial in Streatham - Kidderminster Shuttle

Valley Road is part of a group of streets that make up Lambeth Council’s Streatham Wells Low Traffic Neighbourhood trial.

As part of the trial, only buses and taxis are able to enter Valley Road from both ends, with motorists who take the same route facing a fine of £130 from next Monday.

Locals say the signs are difficult to see, and argue that the introduction of the LTN has made traffic on the surrounding streets worse.

Julian Heather, 69, said that the LTN had been introduced “without proper consultation”.
