Yeah, this has been my experience too. Not sure where you are in it, I’m over on the Dames Road side of things. The removal of Odessa Road as a through route has been transformative. The thing I’ve noticed the most is the drop in volume - we used to have noisy exhausts bombing past the house at least a few times a day and that has been completely eliminated. I need to remember to leave feedback on the consultation website - there were a fair few negative comments on there when I looked.
Eejit-
I'm on Odessa (between Huddlestone road and Pevensey Road), the noise drop is dramatic. Normally you get absolutely twats speeding down at all hours in the morning smashing out the tunes, that's all stopped. Everything just feels calmer and nicer, you'd have to be insane to want it to go back to how it was.
There are negative comments on the site but there are definitely more positive ones, the negative ones are so ridiculously aggressive as well.

Depressingly there are a lot more negative comments on the site now, I just went on for the first time in while and there's lots (although you get the vibe that a lot are written by the same person).
The best negative comment I read said we don't need it because there's no accidents on Odessa, a speeding car literally crashed through someone's front garden wall a few months ago.

Just an update in the Newham/Waltham Forest ltn. It has been a couple of weeks and I can say it's been nothing short of life changing, cleaner, quieter and so many more people (especial kids) cycling past my house. I really hope they keep it because I've heard that the Wandsworth trial has already been pulled? (does anyone knows if that's true?)
I'd really hate a great opportunity to be lost but cause of a few loud idiots.
