The LTN has ruined my life, I live on Cannon Hill with a young toddler. The constant traffic, beeping, road rage, stuck buses and lorries, means it is impossible to get my son to sleep. We can’t open the windows even in the heat of the summer due to the now high pollution levels. I don’t drive, I don’t own a car, I pay the same council tax as all the privileged people who apparently deserve cleaner air at our expense. Tell me HOW IS THIS FAIR??? Who decided my family and my road doesn’t deserve ‘fresh air’? You have basically decided there are people who will be privileged at the expense of us. I didn’t buy my home on a ring road, those in the Lakes Estate knew their roads could be busy.
There are clear links between pollution and many illnesses, including cancer, this decision has meant those on the new ‘ring road’ are now at higher risk. I can’t understand how anyone thinks this is OK. They are either deluded to somehow justify ‘reduced traffic levels’ by pretending the same traffic isn’t just sitting on different roads, or they are not interested in our lives and health, and only interested in those living in expensive houses off fox lane.
