🧵 Wee trip to Waltham Forrest, London

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods, accessible public transport, walkable communities and safe cycling - showing what’s possible in a UK context.

#StreetsNotRoads
The local authority here delivered traffic calming/reduction projects know as Mini Holland schemes
Through traffic was filtered from residential streets using one way streets (with two way cycling), trees as filters and small gardens.

The effect:

✅less thru traffic
✅residents, deliveries and emergency services unaffected
✅less noise (it’s remarkably quiet) 🐦
✅greenery
