The chance to get low traffic neighbourhoods, with through routes closed off to cut rat running and enable safer, more peaceful streets is something we explored several years ago in a neighbourhood partnership workshop on local streets and parking. Being able to resume these ideas is timely and there’s already been a lot of interest in more liveable streets.
