Sorry need to keep up with this thread better.
To update: the roadblocks came down a while ago. Residents' suggestions/critiques were gathered and new adjusted plans for filtered permeability were delivered last weekend.
Also traffic data was released, showing a dramatic overall reduction in cars in the trial area.
Some residential roads did see a dramatic INCREASE in traffic which worked out how to cut through. The revised plans feature more and moved road blocks to (hopefully) address this.
Pre- trial, slightly More than half of people in the area polled were for, about a third against. Post trial both percentages increased slightly, leaving a majority in support.
So this next consultation will be chewed over, and implemented early next year.
Next step is filtered permeability in a neighbouring area, and hopefully soon plans for a fully segregated Lea Bridge Road will be released.
