Modal filtering

So, the decision has apparently been taken to remove the filtering east of the A23 altogether. This is a bad decision and fails to acknowledge that the scheme had just been badly-designed. This shows only a rudimentary understanding:

It had been blamed over recent months, and particularly in the last few weeks, for clogging up the high road with traffic. This was thought to be due to the LTN affecting the entry-points vehicles were using to emerge onto the main road.

This points at junction capacity issues, which are really not that hard to balance out with a different filtering scheme, but I guess some politicians, who typically don't understand technical detail well, succumbed to a misleading campaign about it. Given that all recent filtering schemes I've looked at are badly-designed, this is probably the starting-gun for more filtering to be removed, which is the wrong course of action.

It will be interesting what happens in Tower Hamlets, where Mayor Rahman has threatened to remove all filtering. This will undoubtedly be grist to his mill.
