Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/15/ignore-myths-low-traf...

"The myths of freedom for the motorist – painted vividly in advertisements that show Land Rovers cruising through completely empty city centres – must make room for the real-life and realisable freedom of kids to breathe cleaner air in their playgrounds, people to walk and cycle with less risk, and for all of us to get to where we need to go without being stuck in congestion."

This isn't really supporting the point though, Wood Green High Road has plenty of cars going up and down it at all hours. It isn't the presence of the cars that is the factor in how safe people feel it is.

Plus, it seems that the LTNs aren't quiet, there are numerous e-bikes and scooters...

Clive... you said "My feeling is that the assertions of feeling unsafe is made by those who want to oppose low traffic neighbourhoods on any grounds"...

Your "feeling" ?....you've just said that you need evidence not feeling...so where is your evidence? 

I can see this has attracted the usual pack who seek to decry the experience of women. For us who have lived her for some time we have a different perspective.

It's convenient to right us off as "the petrol heads" of your imagination. But that has nothing to do with this ! It looks like a rant to be honest.  You haven't addressed my concerns.

You live in society so respect other's opinions please.
