Worcester Park residents raise concerns over pollution fears Residents and councillors have slammed Sutton Council for ignoring the dangers they say are caused by the council s Low-traffic neighbourhoods (LTN). The LTN, a set of road barriers to reduce through-traffic, was brought in under Covid-19 emergency transport measures and has received mixed feedback. The council introduced them as part of a push in the capital to create safer alternative travel options amid the pandemic, with public transport running out a severely reduced capacity for much of the year. Residents and some councillors have insisted that the LTN, known as ‘Busgate’ in Worcester Park, has created an increase in congestion and pollution, with queues of stationary traffic on adjoining roads.
