Oooh boy...this #15minutecity conspiracy theory goes deep. @peterwalker99 @carlafrancome @jonburkeUK @carltonreid
My letter I wrote to him for context.
Quoting @Jacob_Rees_Mogg "our own Lib Dem Council(@bathnes), who seem to delight in making life as difficult for motorists as possible".

Bath has 481 designed Liveable Neighbourhoods, 18 retrofitted, and there are TWO new trial ones in the pipeline. felt.com/map/Baths-Exis…
46.2% of @Jacob_Rees_Mogg's households are classed as deprived and this championing of car dependency as "freedom" is a significant cost on day to day living. #20MinuteCommunities help with *your* #CostOfLivingCrisis

PS: This @Census2021 tool is amazing ons.gov.uk/visualisations…

In 2022 we saw @bathnes deliver Liveable Neighbourhoods trials, Shared Bus Borders, Bus Stop Bypasses, Light Protected Cycle Lanes, Floated Car Parking to protect cycle lanes, Bike Hangars, 20mph speed limits, Continuous Footways, and a new Walking/Cycling Bridge! Amazing! 1/n
BUT @BathnesParks installed gravel bound steep path in @fosydneygardens creating an inaccessible exit on Beckford Rd. @bathnesld weakly hid behind a Citizen's Panel. @BATHNESHighways submitted a failed £1m bid to @activetraveleng ATF Tranche 3. 😭 2/n
However thanks to @WestofEnglandCA @votedannorris £540m Sustainable Transport Settlement @BATHNESHighways is going to be very busy delivering Scholar's Way, Kelston Rd Walcot St East West Link, and even giving Somer Valley some love! 3/n

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods are an attempt to reverse the 1990s decision to leverage residential roads to take pressure off main through routes by keeping them permeable in response to a lack of national policy to cap car ownership and under-investing public transport. 1/n
If we do nothing, traffic levels will continue to increase and grid lock is inevitable anyway. A two way cycle track is the equivalent of adding 5 lanes of vehicle people movement capacity. LTNs play a key role in increasing the people movement capacity of your network 2/n
The sad thing is that no one opposing LTNs or main road cycle tracks is offering up any other solutions. The fundamental problem is too many cars on our roads driving too many miles. Switching to electric doesn't solve that. In fact it makes it worse. 3/n
